Palo Duro Campsites/Can't figure this out

A couple buddies of mine and myself are going to Palo Duro in April for a week. The plan was to snag a drive-up campsite for the week, then find a primitive campsite to hike out to and camp one night in the middle of the week.

Here's the problem though: The TPWD map of the park is God-awful at denoting what campsites are what.

The website says there are hike-in campsites that are primitive (1/2 mile 3/4 mile) and then they have backpack campsites (1/2 mile to 2 mile hike).

So, here's my questions for anyone who's been there.

Do they have drive up sites, and if so, which are they?
I've found that Fortress Cliff is one of these backpack campsites, but it appears to be right on a road. Are they parkable?
Lastly, I can't find any notation on the map of the primitive sites?

Any help would be appreciated.
