Fivemile Pass OHV

This place is pretty amazing with beautiful views of the sunrise, sunset and stars. Lots of ORV trails for the off road enthusiasts. Problem…SO MANY FLIES. They don’t bite or sting but you could not be outside for very long before they were in everyone’s drinks and personal space! By sunset they were gone so watching the stars was enjoyable. I just wished we could have spent more time outside during our time at camp. We did discover someone had dumped all their garbage close by so that might have been part of the problem🤷‍♀️.

This spot is right off the highway and it’s huge! Ample camping for tons of people, lots of trails, and beautiful views. Only downside is the noise. Highway is nearby, army base is doing flyovers and it’s an atv hotspot but if you don’t mind that, it’s great. We had a nice time camping here :)

Pretty silent night. One can hear the cars from the highway, but they are far enough. When I arrived around 8, there was one Atv crusing for another 15 minutes, but then silence for the whole night. Good spot and free! If you have line, there is bushes to attach it if you want to dry your clothes, or to hide when you pee. Ground is very sandy but stable enough to hold my campervan.

This is our go to campground if we don’t want to drive too far from our house. We camp just about 1/2 mile from the south side of the 5 Mile Pass exit, there are dozens of flat places to put down a tent. Just know that there are no trees and it gets VERY hot in the daytime. There is no water to play in, but if you’re into SXS the trails are AWESOME!

Definitely a place to go if you have a Razor, Atv’s or dirt bikes. We typically go in spring or fall due to the heat and lack of shade.

Lots of places to do dispersed camping, but you might get annoyed with the noise of the ATVs. It didn’t bother us, but just be aware that there are a lot people riding around this area. We camped in Miner’s canyon which is right before the five mile pass area.

Great for OHV. That’s about it. Not the best place to camp. You can stay for 14 days for free. Outhouses are spread throughout.

Not much out here but you’ll likely see a hawk or a Golden Eagle. You will have to put up with crazy OHVers and drunk partiers in some spots but there are a lot of places to go with a few pit toilets spread about.

This is the desert and there is no water so come prepared. Please leave no trace and clean up after yourself.

It’s nice fore riding but gets pretty busy on the weekends and obviously really dusty when the wind gets going and bring lots of water and lots of gas there isn’t a gas station for a bit.
