Bonanza Gulch sits within Humboldt National Forest outside Jarbidge, Nevada, accessed via a well-maintained gravel road that winds past exposed rock formations and fir trees. The dispersed area has two sites, one on each side of a bridge over a clear creek. No potable water is available, and cell signal drops out entirely in this corridor. Upper Bluster Campground and Lower Bluster Campground sit nearby along the same road. Free and lightly used, Bonanza Gulch suits campers who come self-sufficient and want open sightlines toward the surrounding mountains.
