Winona Dispersed Camping

This spot was great to stop for the night. It’s close enough to I-40 to be viable for a quick night, but far enough to be quiet. We don’t see anyone. The road was washboards, so getting to it was slow. Other then that it was great

This was a solid find. When we went there were only a few other campers so we had a pretty quiet night. Though we could definitely hear the 40 and occasionally cars would drive down the forest road very quickly. Otherwise, it was a good pitstop.

Free. Easy access from the freeway. No hassles. Very light traffic. No neighbors. 

Cons: it does get quite cold at night at this high elevation. 

We found 1 camp spot when you turn right at the fork about .5 mile before you get to the coordinates. We saw at least 3 maybe 5 tent only no vehicle spots (at least spots I didn’t want to put my car because there was growth). We parked during the week but literally saw one person who just drove by. Pretty remote considering how close it was. We didn’t go further than the coordinates so idk if there are more spots. The one we used was HUGE. big enough for a few RVs.
