Good for boondocking

I am one space up from hay press, it's very flat. There's a nice fire pit here, lots of trees.

The pin from the app takes you to a spot along the main road with an old pit toilet, a clearing and some fire rings full of trash. No trash recept, no tables, fire rings or water. This site has no signage that it is a FS campground and the various Fruita lakes are not at this location. Was cell signal on Verizon though. This area is more like a dirty dispersed camping area than a real campground. I would not stay there or use the old toilet. Recommend the BLM Mud Springs CG instead of this derelict area.

Beautiful aspen groves

Hay Press is about 45 minutes easy driving from Grand Junction. There are three man made lakes, the Fruita Reservoirs, one of which is dried up. They’re not used for town water anymore and I’m not sure if they’re stocked with fish or not, but the camping spots were easy to navigate and plentiful. The temperature is about 15 degrees cooler than Grand Junction and there was plenty of wildlife. Good spot for a quick get away. Some hiking trails, not much 4 wheeling.
