OHV enthusiasts and hikers will find FR228 positioned along a forest road offshoot near the Arizona Trail intersection. This dispersed camping area provides multiple pull-off spots with flat clearings and existing fire rings scattered throughout the site. Campers can drive deeper into the area to reach larger trees suitable for hammock hanging and natural shade.

The offshoot road runs alongside a seasonal water source flowing down the canyon, creating habitat that draws wildlife including wild turkeys and black bears. One recent visitor reported complete solitude during their stay, encountering no other campers until departure day. The area connects to hiking and biking trails, with sites near Fort Huachuca offering additional options for extended stays in the region.

Escape from the Parker Canyon Lake heat

We didn’t see a single soul until the morning we were packing to leave. Near the AZT trail intersection. We took an offshoot off of FR228. Several spots to pull of with flat clearings, existing makeshift fire rings. We drove far enough up the offshoot road until we got to some bigger trees for shade and to hang hammocks. This offshoot runs along side a seasonal water source that runs down the canyon. I believe this created a draw for wildlife and we were lucky enough to spot several wild turkeys and a couple of black bears. The bears scared off easily with some yelling and making ourselves big. We didn’t see them again. Nice solitude!
