Free dispersed camping in the Wasatch foothills above Bountiful puts this BLM site within reach of the Salt Lake Valley, though the road up takes roughly 25 to 30 minutes and requires AWD or 4WD for the rougher sections. RVs longer than 20 feet won't make the climb. Reviewers count around three usable campsites near the main coordinates, each with a fire ring, and additional spots open up further toward the ridgeline.
Daytime noise is a consistent factor here. The surrounding terrain draws OHV riders, dirt bikers, and recreational shooters, and gunfire into nearby gulleys is common on weekends. A spring creek runs through the area in wetter months, and the drive up provides open sightlines toward the surrounding mountains. Nearby dispersed options include Old Ward Canyon Road Dispersed — Wasatch NF and Gun Range Road Dispersed — Wasatch NF, both within a couple of miles.
Cell coverage is unreliable. Verizon and T-Mobile users report spotty signals, while AT&T-based service performs slightly better. One reviewer flagged a practical concern worth noting: "the site was LITTERED with spent ammo, broken glass and broken pieces of clay pigeons." Local sheriffs patrol the area and have been noted as approachable. Bears and mountain lions have been reported in the vicinity, so food storage precautions apply. This site makes the most sense for self-sufficient campers comfortable with an active recreational area and variable conditions.
