Painted Hills OR Boondocking?
So, we're headed to the Painted Hills & I'm trying to see if there's anywhere we can boondock in the area. I had originally planned on staying at Ochoco Divide National Forest Campground, but it isn't...

Nina, how long are you going to be in that area? That is one of the best places in the world to see the meteor shower that is supposed to hit on the night of May 23 - 24! Very dark skies (see link to map below). Perfect latitude -- far enough north that the "radiant" (the source area) of the meteors will be well above the horizon all night long, far enough south that the sun will set at a reasonably early hour, not too cold at night.
Now all you have to do is find a good place to camp, not too close to the bright lights of the big towns in that area. ;)
