Anyone know of good stealth camping spots between Hawk Mtn Shelter around Woody Gap. I want to do about 12 miles from Hawk and Gooch is too short and Lance Creek may be too long from Hawk Mtn at 16+?

Gooch Gap is about 1.4mi past the shelter. There's a large area you could camp there and I know many folks do. It's at a forest road, FWIW. I know of one camp spot up on the ridge with a nice view across the trail. I believe that is Ramrock, so maybe someone can confirm.

People camp pretty much everywhere and anywhere through there. The gaps are more practical, just be sure to bring sufficient water.

Ramrock is a great spot, but its dry. Tank up before you get there.

Just look about as you get close to the end of the day.
Make sure to get water at about 2 - 3 pm.

You will see spots.

Some of them I used.
