Car
Primary access to the North Cascades and Ross Lake National Recreation Area is off of State Route (SR) 20, which connects to I-5 at Burlington. Branch routes lead to Baker Lake (Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest) and the Cascade River. In winter SR 20 is closed at Washington Pass beyond Ross Lake.

There is also trail access off of SR 20. The only road access to the shore of Ross Lake is via the Silver-Skagit Road (gravel) from near Hope, British Columbia.

Greyhound(1-800-229-9424)offers transport along the I-5 corridor in Western Washington and to Wenatchee in Eastern Washington. Connections to county bus systems for Skagit and Whatcom Counties (SKAT and WTA)are possible but do not reach into the park complex on the westside of the mountains.

A van shuttle is available in the valley from the Stehekin Landing.

More Camping Tips

Make campground reservations early if possible.

Real contact information.
Real phone numbers.
Real websites.

Unlike other travel websites, AllStays.com gives you direct links to the park websites.

If possible, call the campground or rv park to confirm the current status of the location. These come and go throughout the year due to closings, budget cuts and of course, mother nature.

The earlier you arrive, the more likely you will get the type of site you want to have. Stronger wi-fi signal? Quiet space?
