On BLM and USFS lands, you must camp within 150 feet (45 m) of officially-designated routes, and only on existing spur roads. Please respect private property and other areas closed to camping. Be aware of the potential for wildfire due to drought conditions and/or windy weather. Check current fire restrictions.

Good Views!
Really nice views and is located right off HW24, so it’s easy to get to- but that also means you can see the HW and can hear semis and other large vehicles. You could probably get further off the road if you wanted, but there’s some nice spots nestled in between the hills that are pretty quiet. There’s also some cool fire rings built up against big rocks, which was nice in the wind. Hike up the hills for some great sunset and sunrise view points! This is also a good spot for a little wheeling, there’s some small hills and rocks you can drive around on if you’re into that. Good service for Verizon, too!
