Excellent dispersed camping area tucked into tall ponderosa pines with multiple established clearings. The site shown here is spacious, mostly level, and clearly well-used without feeling trashed or overrun. Easy to tuck a van into the trees and still have room for chairs, a table, and a hammock setup.
The forest service road in is mostly smooth dirt with some washboard and minor ruts—nothing technical, just go slow. I’d recommend vans, trucks, and smaller rigs; larger Class C rigs may struggle with turning around. Plenty of tree cover for shade and wind protection, plus open sky for great daytime light and night stargazing.
Fire rings are already established (use responsibly and follow current fire restrictions). The area felt quiet and safe with very little traffic. Cell service was usable for me. Cooler temps than Prescott proper, which makes this a solid year-round option depending on weather.
This is true dispersed camping—no amenities—so come prepared and pack out everything. Please respect the land so this spot stays open and enjoyable for others.
