The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
This is just off the CR 194 road that is going to the Arkansas Headwaters State Campground. When you first pull in it is a very large open area with dust, dirt, weeds. Dry looking with rock cliffs along the two sides some trees but mainly just an open parking area. There are several rock fire rings. A bit of trash. Some camping units looked as if they had been there a bit but I am not questioning that. We traveled all the way to the end and you will come to a fence. Now there is a circle drive at the end and that is the last site with a rock fire ring. It was the ultimate site. The bluffs on each side ended and you have the complete valley spread out in front of you with the mountains in the distance. I would like to spend two weeks here. I am sure it is a very safe location but I did have a few doubts.
No water, no trash, no toilets.

Good spot for Boondocking Salida is ten miles away with all the amenities including Walmart.
Beautiful BLM land
Awesome location, beautiful views of the collegiate peaks and about 20 minutes away from Salida. There are lot of spots in this area (some side roads lead you to 360 views). The cows stroll through the fields every now and then too. Some trash and broken glass in places, but overall not too bad. On a plateau, so it can get pretty windy. Dirt road up, with some sketchy areas, but we were able to make it up fine with a 2wd low clearance van. Solid cell service (Verizon and AT&T).
