This free BLM dispersed camping area sits on elevated terrain just off Highway 24, providing big rig access via well-maintained dirt roads. The area spreads across multiple zones, with the busiest sites located straight past the cattle guard and additional, more secluded options available by turning right and crossing a small wash that requires decent ground clearance.
Most sites feature rock fire rings constructed by previous campers, making established camping spots easy to identify. The rocky, shale-like ground presents challenges for tent stakes, as jaydn notes: "Because it's bedrock, our tent stakes didn't go more than an inch or two into the ground." However, plenty of rocks are available to secure tent corners and guy lines. Wind can be a significant factor here, with multiple reviewers mentioning strong gusts that affect tent campers more than RV users.
The elevated position offers expansive views toward Capitol Reef National Park's red rock formations and the Henry Mountains beyond. Cell coverage remains strong for both Verizon and AT&T networks, allowing remote work and streaming. The area provides excellent stargazing conditions with minimal light pollution, though highway traffic creates some noise, particularly from passing semis, though this typically decreases after dark.
No facilities exist on-site, but campers can access water and dump services at Fruita Campground in Capitol Reef for $5. The town of Torrey, less than two miles away, offers basic supplies and firewood. For more extensive camping options in the region, see places to camp around Torrey. The 14-day stay limit applies, and rangers patrol periodically during busy periods.
Arrive with extra tent stakes and windbreaks if camping in anything smaller than an RV.
