Great views, beautiful sunsets

Plenty of space but filling up towards dark, great views any direction, some level spots, some not so, easy road getting in. Spaces are further apart on the north end toward the highway, but you can’t hear it. Only reason I give it four has nothing to do with the space itself but the generator noise I have the bad luck to be next to

Always nice

We have stayed here a few times, this is the first time we have stayed with the marked sites. I understand the need for it. Beautiful sunrises, lovely spot to stop for a night.

No amenities but beautiful!

I love this spot. We were able to find level spots and the view of the Badlands is amazing. It can be very windy! First come, first served. Posts mark the sites but no water, sewer or electric. Boondocking. Free.
