It’s a great spot to come in the winter, they keep Swauk Campground (review here!) plowed in the winter, it’s a sno-park and is free to camp with a snopark pass.
Occasionally someone will stop by to use the bathroom or stop by the main picnic shelter, but it’s usually very quiet in the winter. The lot was a sheet of ice, we ended up shoveling snow around the truck just so we could walk.

I added a folding had rail next to the stairs while we were here, just a quick project.

We had a nice little fire and a quiet dinner. It’s nice to get away.
