UPDATE: These free campgrounds have been contracted to a private company and are now fee areas. Kind of expensive. This page will be left on the campground listing, because of the great photos and there are some campsites on Road#1180 NOTE: The map and information booth at the Ochoco Ranger Station show both Perry South and Monty Campgrounds with No Fees... until you get there. Is there something in the constitution that forbids the government from charging you to use public areas. If you have limited budget, then you are not allowed access to public land... maybe even throw you in jail. Lake Billy Chinook Lake Billy Chinook has some inspiring landscades. From canyons and badlands, with towering mountain peaks in the back- ground, it is worth a visit. Lake Billy Chinook Road#64 towards Monty Campground Road#64 to Monty Campground ESTABLISHED CAMPGROUNDS PERRY SOUTH CAMPGROUND $14.00 This was a free campground, now is expensive... MONTY CAMPGROUND $12.00 6 miles of very rough road, to be charged an outrageous amount... disappointment. THE COVE PALISADES STATE PARK The Cove Palisades State Park has several established campgrounds... probably showers... Views and scenery will distort reality... There are some more primitive camp areas and spectaculay photos near and around Lake Billy Chinook. Lower Bridge Road (Near milepost 5) On Lower Bridge Road are some "Perfect Views" and areas you can camp or overnight park. Between milepost 2 and milepost 5 is BLM Land. There are several spur roads. Get out of view from the main road and nobody will know you are there. These roads are dusty in the summer. Lower Bridge Road (Near milepost 5) Possible camp area...
