Camp under the stars in a Joshua Tree forest
- Free primitive campground great for boondocking! First come first serve.
- Right across from the Teutonia Peak trailhead. Perfect for going on a day hike and explore the landscape surrounded by Joshua Trees
- Shell gas station about 11 miles up Interstate 15 if you need to pick up water and supplies
- Dirt roads with gravel with some small rocks when approaching campground.
- Fires are allowed and some sites have firepits. You can always make your own with the rocks in the area.
- The land is owned by Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) and dedicated to the fallen soldiers of all wars
- The best sites are the two right around the White Cross Memorial boulders. The one near the front of the cross (entrance) is great for group camping. It has two picnic tables and is right next to a large Juniper tree. The one in the rear of the White Cross is very spacious and has large rocks that protect from the wind.
- Amazing star gazing in the dessert with very little light polution
- Some spots may be difficult for vehicles without high clearance. Beware of scraping the underbelly your cars or trailers on rocks in the road.
- Pretty secluded and remote camping. There were about 6 other campers near us -- mostly RVs and a few tent sites
- No showers, toilets, running water. Practice LNT and pack in pack out.
- Wifi is okay -- 2 out of 4 bars (AT&T)
