Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop - Site B29

Site B29 at the Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop is towards the end of the loop. It seems to have an irregular tent pad compared to other sites. It is also fairly close proximity to site B28 but there's a little tree spacing. This site is nearest the water spigot so you may hear lots of foot traffic. This is in a low lying area so it can flood. There's typically pools of water near one or more sides so mosquitoes are more abundant.

Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop - Site B28

Site B28 at the Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop is at the end of the loop. It's within direct sight of B27 so unless you're part of a group using both B27 and B28, it could be uncomfortable knowing B27 can look over at you all day. It's also very close to B29 but there's a tad more tree spacing. It's close to the river so the roar of the water could be a problem if the sound of water makes you pee.

Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop - Site B26

Site B26 at the Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop is towards the end of the loop. It's set back from the pathway so there's some privacy. It's close to the river so the roar of the water could be a problem if the sound of water makes you pee.

Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop - Site B25

Site B25 at the Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop is midway down the path. Traffic noise from the main road is minimal. You may occasionally hear the clanging of the trash bin lid. B25 is directly across from the restrooms so the clanging of the doors could be a problem. It is also open to the pathway which means anyone walking down the path can see into your site. B25 is also within site of B23 so your neighbor could see what you're doing somewhat. I spent 6 nights at this campsite and was fairly satisfied. I was pretty paranoid of bears so seeing people walk by every so often was pretty comporting as they would get mauled before me, theoretically.

Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop - Site B24

Site B24 at the Mendenhall Campground Backpacker Loop is close to the main road so the traffic noise could be bothersome. It is also next to the only trash bin in the area so the clanging of the lid could also be a concern. There's also an auto site behind but with some trees and spacing but a noisy group could bleed over. B24 is also near the restroom so the clanging doors could be an issue if crowded.
