Shawnee Backpacking Camp 2 — photo spot in West Portsmouth, OH 45663, USA
Shawnee Backpacking Camp 2
A backcountry campsite deep in Shawnee State Forest offering dense hardwood ridges, fern-lined hollows, creek crossings and open ridgelines — great for intimate forest details, fall color, misty mornings and night skies. Access is by foot from trailheads; expect primitive facilities and limited cell service. Best at golden hour or pre-dawn for valley mist, autumn for color, and clear summer nights for stars. Park at the designated trailhead and plan for a short backpack; check local forest rules
