With all the state, regional, and national parks are closed to overnight stays I found a BLM spot somewhat nearby.
The road becomes dirt for the last 10ish miles or so, and I was happy to find it in pretty great condition all things considered.
They have something like 5-7 developed spots with picnic tables, fire rings, and overhead canopies (no hook-ups but they did have a pooper), but there are also about a dozen large open areas that you can camp, too (without the tables, ring, ...). We ended up right outside the main developed area in a nice level spot. I didn't use the makeshift fire ring you can see in the photo due to the pines nearby and the ground being littered in pine needles. I don't need that in my life...
The cat did well on the trip mostly sleeping in his cubby until we arrived.
Nice sunsets on top of the mountain (crispy 40F at night).
Can't complain about waking up to this view.
