Sandstone cliffs ring the alcove where Campsite #22 sits along Buckhorn Draw, giving the site a defined, enclosed feel that stands apart from open desert camping. The BLM-managed site includes a picnic table and fire ring. No water, toilet, trash service, or cell signal are available, so campers need to arrive fully self-sufficient. The access road runs through sand in places, and scouting conditions before committing a loaded vehicle is worth the effort. Nearby, Buckhorn Draw Fee Campground Sites 18-21 and Buckhorn Draw fee designated Campsites 23-24 offer comparable setups for groups needing multiple sites. This spot suits campers comfortable with a no-frills, carry-in-carry-out setup in canyon country.
Description
Buckhorn Draw is a stunning canyon cut into the Navajo, Kayenta, and Wingate Sandstones. Carsonite posts mark where there are primitive campsites where lucky campers might spot bighorn sheep running across the ledges. Camping in Buckhorn Wash is limited to designated sites that are marked with camping signs. Creating new campsites is not allowed. Reservations not available. If there are no marked and designated sites available when you arrive, find another place to camp outside Buckhorn Draw (Check out the Swinging Bridge Campgrounds).
