Title: DNR dispersed camping near Spokane? (Not right now obvsly)
Post by: dwils233 on September 09, 2020, 08:51:25 PM
Like it says above. I know not right now since it's all closed down.

But when it opens up, I noticed some smaller pieces of DNR land in Spokane county. Anyone know if you can dispersed camp on any of them? I would call and ask, but I figure they got their hands busy right now (and I'd spend half the time clarifying " I know not right now")

Always check with local ranger station in the area you will be traveling for any specific regulations. In drier areas, fire bans are typically the most common.
Use a camping stove or fire pan rather than building a fire from surrounding resources.
For fires, ensure you only use deadfall for firewood. Never cut and burn live trees or bring firewood from another area.
Come equipped with a bucket, an axe, and a shovel for properly distinguishing fires.
Don’t create a new campsite if there’s one already available.
Be aware of any overnight permits and road conditions before heading out.
Follow any laws and regulations regarding pets in these wild spaces. Keep your dog on a leash if required.
Expect to pack out all of your trash and waste.
Do not camp within 200 feet (70 adult steps) from lakes and streams.
Always bury human waste in a cathole six inches deep and 200 feet away from any water source. Follow these guidelines for your pets, as well.
And of course, follow all Leave No Trace principles.
If these don't work.....There's always Camping at Walmart!  :chuckle:
