Main Draw OHV Area

Off Highway Vehicle Area within Pawnee National Grassland, Main Draw provides dispersed camping access via standard vehicle routes. The US Forest Service manages this site with seasonal OHV restrictions running April through November, as clearly posted signage indicates upon arrival.

One reviewer notes the area functions more as basic overnight accommodation than a developed camping destination. The grassland setting offers open terrain typical of northeastern Colorado's high plains. Campers can explore campgrounds near Pawnee National Grassland for additional options in this region.
