Hwy 193 BLM Dispersed

We needed a nice, lovely spot to rest for the night and organize our campervan on our way from LAS to GCNP. This was perfect. No one around, lovely sunset and sunrise, campervan did just fine.

We stayed a couple of days in early February. Other than the some mild rain and a bit chilly at night it was an excellent spot. Pretty much had the place to ourselves. There are several established sites with open areas and fire pits. No amenities so make sure you bring everything you need. We tucked in behind a nice juniper tree to keep out of the wind, but there is a very large area at the camp we used, enough room for multiple tents. Roads are a bit rough definitely would recommend 4wd if your going to go back further along the road. Lots of deer and possible elk tracks in the area, but didn’t see anything.

Quite convenient place to have a break during long travel. A lot of spots available. Nice sun rise as bonus :)

There are lots of flat spaces for RVs and tents, but don't look only in the first area to the east side of the road there are many more uproad 63 and off the side roads, especially larger areas with turnarounds for RVs and trailers.

The campsite itself is wonderful! There’s about three sites within the first half mile. The first one on the right is massive, and could definitely be considered multiple sites as long as you don’t mind getting cozy with your neighbors. There really isn’t much to see or do, and the surrounding area is very meh. We wouldn’t stay for a long time, but it’s a great spot near the highway for a break in travel

This was a fairly easy drive down the road. A little washboard once you leave the pavement but it doesn’t last long. We have a 32foot motorhome and a small SUV and didn’t have any trouble getting to the area. It’s very easy to find as there were quite a few fire rings made up in the area. It’s not the most level but with a little work you can get level enough to run your refrigerator. It’s very quiet and peaceful here.

This spot is right off 40 which is convenient, but far enough off to not hear road noise and such. The road is dirt and a bit rough when we were here in November but passable in our FWD van. Drive down the road a bit if possible. There’s a hand gun of sites just as you turn into this place but they are all pretty close together. All and all a nice convenient free camp spot for the night but prob not somewhere I’d set up for a longer stay unless you are in a vehicle that can get back down the road a bit. I didn’t take any photos…sorry!!….it’s a beautiful area tho

Belting spot just off the highway. Easy enough to drive up in any vehicle, a natural campsite. Enough space for everyone and private.

Very pretty area that lives up to the other reviews. I’m in a Jeep so I ventured further down the road. It does get very rough so I wouldn’t recommend it without 4wd and a fair amount of clearance. You have to go pretty far down the road before finding additional spots though.

This is a solid spot. Right off the fwy, but you don’t hear any traffic. I didn’t stray too far down the road as it seems to get a bit treacherous the further you go, but there’s plenty of spots before that point. We are a bit closer to others than usual, but the trees provide enough privacy to where i don’t see anyone.

There are so many little private spots, several marked with rock fire pits, that you can find clustered in this little area, and yet with all the junipers and plant life surrounding you it will still feel fairly private, even with other campers around.

Hwy 193 does continue past this point and there are more spots to be found further down, but the road has been washed out and gullied and so you'll need to proceed with caution if you choose to go down it. We did see a couple of vans and ATVs that were camping down there.

For being so close and easily accessed from Hwy 40 this area is amazingly quiet. Also, there were many other campers (possibly some long timers, we didn't investigate too closely) when we stayed here and everyone was so respectful and quiet and friendly (and no generators!).

Good att service and Verizon was spotty, but usable.

Lots of cow patties and cow footprints all over but didn't see any cows or any wildlife.

Surprisingly little trash in the area, just a few bottles along the road that were probably tossed from vehicles that we picked up.

Sand is soft and we had a hard time getting and keeping our RV level.

Really beautiful environment. An amazing view out of every window in the RV. Definitely one to mark on the maps for when we're in the area in the future.
