NO WAY!

Per the GPS coordinates, I found the turn off for this location off Byway 12. I wish I would have snapped a pic but didn’t think about it till I was long gone. The entry was no-way a road. Maybe it once was, but not anymore. Not only was it a lumpy, bumpy mess, but Weeds have grown up both sides and the middle. I backed out and left. Wasn’t comfortable driving my Jeep there, and no way would I venture it in my rig. I did have 2 bars of Verizon service at the entry point. Not sure if that would stay the same had I gone to an actual campsite.

Dispersed camping in Grand Staircase

Great location right off Cottonwood road in the Grand Staircase. About 14 miles if coming in from the North. If you go much further south towards Page, run into having less tree coverage, which in this area helps with the wind. Nice and flat area here, would certainly stop again.
