Freemont Wash Dispersed Camping

It is a large gravel area with large gravel mounds and a lot of used tires.

It aint pretty but its close to the highway.

There are signs indicating hiking trails but we didn't get a chance to explore.

It’s good enough for one night-just somewhere to sleep. A bit off the highway and still had cell service

Id say this place is good enough. Needed a spot in the area within 30 mins close to highway quiet dark secluded and it fit the bill

Pros:

No one else there

Vast huge area

Nice mountain view

Nice breeze 

Good temp in June

Beautiful night sky

Quiet enough in eve and early AM

Not many bugs

Super close to highway, right there

Flat!

Cons:

Some trash left behind in some areas

A highway patrol and dune buggy whizzed by next day super loud. There are giant mounds of gravel the dune buggy rides. We were there sleeping til 12pm tho so prob fine if u leave at a decent AM time

Could hear the highway slightly, not enough i needed ear plugs tho and Im sensitive to sound when sleeping

Got hot during day til 12pm

Its gravel

Not super nature-y cuz its all gravel under you and mounds of gravel, good views arnd far away tho

Stopped for an overnight heading to Denver. Initially there was another car with dogs but they didn’t stay so we ended up being the only ones for the night. It’s close to the highway, so we parked by one of the gravel birms for some protection and privacy. unfortunately there was lots of trash around and we found human feces.
It’s pretty flat which is a plus but definitely wouldn’t be my first choice if we would have seen something else

It's just off the highway. It's soft gravel but I had no problems in my dodge grand caravan. 4 bars with verizon. Very quiet

Big open area, pretty flat. Couldn’t really see much as we arrived dark. Very strong cell Signal for T-mobile, Verizon and att.

There is a very large gravel area that's pretty level. We parked along one of the gravel mounds to help block wind and road noise. There wasn't much, to be honest. There's pulloffs along Freemont and Govt Well rd. There were a couple of other rigs there. It was pretty quiet for being right off the highway. There was some trash. So, make sure to leave it cleaner than you found it.
