These are pretty handy to have - being able to charge your electronics in a lockable locker is really nice...


Locks are not included, so plan to bring a padlock if you're heading through the area.

Five Montana state parks have similar areas. All are either on or very close to ACA routes. I’ve stayed at two twice. Very nice. Covered picnic table with power outlets, water source, pea gravel tent pads, bike repair clamps and bear lockers. The two I stayed at have good shade around the tent pads. $8/person for residents. $12 for non-residents. AFAIK, all 5 parks have showers, but they cost $3 extra for all users.

Glad to see they are investing in bike facilities. Now if Oregon just opened their hiker/biker campsites. Yea, that is true. if you showed up on a bike you couldn't camp this summer - and according to there website that is still true. Must be because hikers and bikers were/are super spreaders of Covid, but if you drive in you are somehow magically immune to Covid because you are surrounded by 3,000+ pounds of metal. Way to go Oregon. They should let Washington State know this (or maybe Washington State knows something which is why their hiker biker sites are open). So I will spend my $ where I am welcome.

Off topic, but the above comment jogged my memory.
