About
Bureau of Land Management
Free dispersed, also known as primitive, camping is allowed at the Monticello Field Office, Manti-La Sal National Forest, and Bears Ears National Monument except where posted. Any in-canyon camping on Cedar Mesa requires a permit, available at recreation.gov. For dispersed camping, remember the following regulations: • There is a 14-day camping limit while occupying any campsite on BLM-managed lands. • Only travel on designated routes. Off-road driving is not permitted. • The best campsites are found, not made. Do not create new campsites or alter existing ones. • Use existing fire rings or use a fire pan. Collect only dead and down wood; do not cut limbs. • Don’t leave fires unattended. Remember to drown and stir campfires before you go to bed or leave your site. • Be aware of any current fire restrictions. • No dispersed camping in the vicinity of developed recreation sites such as picnic areas, campgrounds, or trailheads. • Find an even site to camp on without trenching, digging, leveling, or trimming tree limbs to fit your tent or trailer. • Be courteous of other campers. • Pack it in, pack it out, including human waste.

Easy Stay
buddy and I just pulled off the main road to sleep for the night, there was only one other car at the site and e didn’t get a chance to explore but it was beautiful
Peaceful, Scenic
The ride on Lower Butler Wash Road to reach this site was no problem for our campervan. Crossed 2 dry washes; took it slow. One of several dispersed sites along road. The site is well off the road. Flat, level spot. It has a rock fire ring. Along side Butler Wash which was nearly dry at the time. Beautiful views all around. Very quiet & peaceful. Only 2 other vehicles drove down Butler Wash Rd. Ground cover & juniper provided some privacy. No AT&T nor T-Mobile service.
