Howland Hill Rd is relatively short, with trees closely lining both sides. You'd be lucky to find a place to pull off to take pictures, much less boondock. Plus it enters park (state or national) almost right away.
When I toured the area a decade ago, I drove up 199 to Patrick Creek, camped over night (small forest service campground), and then returned to the coast on forest service roads high on the ridge to the north. Old wagon roads tended to follow ridgelines, rather than the river bottoms that modern highways favor.
Thanks, paulj!
I'd love to find a place to boondock among northern redwoods. Anybody know of such a place?
I haven't driven it, but on the map (and photos) Bald Hills Rd looks interesting.
I m tempted by that one, too! Google maps has a few images, and they are lovely, especially once the road gets up high.
