Santa Fe National Forest manages this free dispersed site along Forest Road 4B, where a Forest Service gate marks the entry point. The gate is closed but not locked. Recent logging activity has thinned the canopy in places, though enough trees remain to provide shade and some privacy between sites. A cliff view opens up from the camping area. The site fits two vehicles and two tents comfortably, with room for perhaps one additional setup or a small trailer. Cell service is available, and pets are welcome. Campers planning a trip to the Jemez Falls area or looking at pet-friendly camping near Santa Fe National Forest will find this a practical no-cost base. Bring your own water, as no developed amenities are on-site.
Description
Primitive camping is allowed almost anywhere on the Santa Fe National Forest unless otherwise posted. These areas generally do not offer any amenities although occasionally you will find a toilet building or a picnic table and grill. Please keep your campsite at least 100 feet from streams and lakes, including riverbanks or areas next to bodies of water. This will help preserve the health of the riparian area and protect sensitive animals and plants found here.
