Accessibility

  • wheelchairAccess= Brooks Camp Campground has two tent locations with the following features: tent pads with compacted surfaces, and firm, stable, gently sloping routes to compliant fire rings, cook shelters, toilets, and picnic tables with wheelchair clearance. Access to all facilities except the vault toilets will require assistance. The trail to the campground is generally flat, but like all trails at Brooks Camp it is frequently muddy. Trails in the campground are narrow and not formally maintained.

  • fireStovePolicy= Cooking Shelters: Use the cooking shelters to prepare and eat your food. This concentrates food odors away from tents. Do not use the shelters for drying or storing gear or sleeping. Fires: Fires are only permitted in the fire rings next to each cooking shelter. Only dead and down wood can be collected to burn. Do not burn or dispose of food in the fire rings. Minimize food odors by cooking food over a stove in the cooking shelters. Food: All campers are required to store all food and odorous items inside of the designated food cache when those items are not immediately needed. No cooking or eating is allowed outside of the designated cooking shelters. Dishes must be washed at the water spigot adjacent to the food cache. Dishes and utensils should be scraped clean before washing at the spigot. Fuel Storage: Petroleum products attract bears. Therefore, store all stoves and fuel in the lockers adjacent to the gear cache. Separate liquid from gaseous fuels and place each in the appropriate locker.

  • additionalInfo= Bears: Be alert for bears at all times. Always maintain a minimum distance of 50 yards from any bears, even if the electric fence is between you and the bear. The electric fence is bear-resistant, not bear-proof. If a bear enters the campground, open all of the fence gates–if it is safe to do so–and notify a park employee.
