Mary,
People often camp in mill creek canyon just above where the Vivian Creek Trail crosses Mill Creek, less than a mile from the parking lot in Forest Falls.
This is backcountry camping, and you won’t find the area listed as a campsite, but it’s USFS land, it’s not Wilderness, and I have to assume that dispersed camping a reasonable distance from the creek itself is totally okay. In any event, there’s nobody out there patrolling it, so if you leave no trace, you should be fine.
As a bonus, you’ll get to see the occasional person who missed the turn for Vivian Creek Trail, and ended up heading toward the Jumpoff! Ha!
It’s beautiful up there too. Enjoy.
Chris
