Free dispersed camping along Forest Road 117 provides drive-in and walk-in access within Apache National Forest. Campers can set up where they choose on this BLM land, with big rigs accommodated and cell service available. A pond sits roughly 125 yards from typical camping spots, where frogs call during spring evenings and wildlife including coyotes and wolves can be heard at night. The area features high plains terrain with trees, rocks, and mountain views. Temperatures can drop significantly - one March visitor recorded 41 degrees inside their RV. Beehive Spring Camp offers a more structured option just 0.2 miles west.
