This
was one of my favorite drives while I was living in Grants Pass.
It's only about 3 miles north off I-5 at Exit 61. Indian
Mary campground is about 10 miles down the road and Almeda
Park campground is about 20 miles from where you exit.

I
verified with a ranger at a visitor center that it is OK to
boondock alongside the road of this BLM land, but was also told
it is not advisable. Especially with RVs left unattended, there
have been several instances of vandalism and break-ins. I wouldn't
chance it. |

Winding
along with the Rogue
River is a great way to spend the day. |

|
About
17 miles from I-5 exit is Galice
Resort -
a nice place to stop for lunch on the river. |

I
wouldn't go any further than Almeda Park in an RV. Either overnight
here or turn around because the road becomes one lane and quite
narrow in places from The Grave Creek Bridge on. |
|
|
|
In
a car, though, it's a great trip. Continuing on will take you
to Wolfe Creek and back around to I-5. |
