Some (at least) campground inside the park have a max length limit of 28 feet. I was asked to leave after being completely set up in a site with WAY more room than I needed, because my trailer was too large to make it into the park For the record it was just as easy to get out as it was to get in. Found a VERY nice private place in Randal (Shady Furs) where the owner brought around fresh picked produce in the mornings for guests.

Nice thing about the RAndal location was that it was just as handy for the eastern side of St Helens as it was for Rainier.

Good luck / Skip

Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people I had to kill because they pissed me off.

As noted, the roads are fine, as long as you are not bothered by some twisty bits. Randle is a fine location as you can also see Mt Saint Helens via Windy Ridge (NO RVs to Windy Ridge)

When someone tells you to buy the same rig they own, listen, they might be right. When they tell you to buy a different rig then they own, really pay attention, they probably know something you don't.
