This lot can accommodate large RVs and school busses. Motorcoaches should proceed to the main lot where the ranger will direct them to a special parking spot.

Handicapped Parking
Parking for those with disabilities is available near the visitor center. The ranger in the kiosk at the main parking lot, will direct you to the parking area for those with disabilities.

RVs

RVs towing vehicles should always pull into the auxiliary lot, located on the left just before the main parking lot, as there is no easy turn around futher up the road.
