Incredibly Surprised

Never in my life have I heard of Mexican Hat, let alone the rock it’s named after. Jeez this place was cool, the river was beautiful, the dispersed camping areas were great under the stars, and that dang Mexican Hat Rock juxtaposed to the unforgiving sea of desert just put a huge smile on my face.

No Desperse Camping anymore

I arrived here late afternoon, big sign in the beginning- pay online under www.mexicanhatrocks.com - it’s 18$ per night for just a place to park- no toilets. . No reception with T-mobile to pay online. Went to gooseneck state park campground instead, only 10$ per night and they have toilets.

Beautiful & open wide

Amazing hiking, breathtaking view. You could see car lights from the highway at a distance, but I feel like we could have parked at a different angle to block it.

Sitedirectly in front of hat.
