TravelerDispersed Camping next to Climbing
Group over 10 people. Plenty of space. Limited shade. Decent toilets but no TP. Dirt road. Easily accessible.
TravelerGreat spot
Lots of dispersed camping spots. Pit toilet (no tp) is clean. Very close to the rim of the canyon. Snowed a few inches but had no problems getting out. Bumpy road but fine for cars. Beautiful canyon.
GuideDispersed camping immediately above climbing
BRING WATER!! Lots of dispersed spots. Spots range in size from tent to medium bumper pull camper with larger spaces further away from the trailhead. 10min hike down to the climbing area. Latrine on site, as always bring your own TP.
