Nice Area Minus Interstate Level Traffic

Nice Area with plenty of pull-offs if you don't mind hundreds of people constantly driving by. I'm not exaggerating lol. Seems kinda cutthroat so get here early and on weekdays. Had to shoot one guy a death stare as he tried to commandeer my spot.

Close to Sunset Crater NM

Dispersed camping we pulled into late, but met our purpose with campervan. Added bonus next morning to find we were so close to Sunset Crater National Monument. Well worth the time to visit!
