Basecamp for exploring

This is BLM land and we did not stay at the campground but on a level spot a few miles away.  The camp has nice sites and shade structures.  We saw quite a few wild horses too!  There is a lot of stuff to explore in this area, especially if you have a 4x4 or SxS.  Very dark area so lots of stars.  Beautiful area so please leave it nicer than you found it.

Great spot for mountain biking and off roading

It’s operated by BLM so it off grid and dispersed. Make sure you bring supplies. If you bike or have an off-road vehicle it’s a perfect spot.
