Highway Side Camping

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Dispersed camping in the high desert outside places to camp near Thompson, Highway Side Camping sits along a highway corridor that, according to one recent camper, produces no audible road noise at the site. The terrain is flat, bugs are minimal, and wind has not been a reported issue. Nights here bring open, dark skies with little light pollution. Nearby dispersed options include Salt Valley Road Dispersed — State Trust Lands less than a mile north. Campers comfortable with no-frills, self-supported setups will find this worth a look.
