    Road to the Sun Ranch

    Astrid the Griff’s Oasis

    I’m Astrid, a Wire-Haired Pointing Griffon. I need lots of room to run and roam and chase sticks. I lived it here at the ranch racing around the pasture in the morning and evening golden light. And seeing the Bluebirds greet me every morning. My hoomans lived the full hookups a little piece of paradise with no neighbors. Great location to run me in National Forest and to hike Capital Reef while I went to a friendly doggie daycare in Torrey. 5 Star for Griff’s and their humans!!!🤩

    Cook’s Messa Trailhead Dispersed Camping Site 2

    Easy pile in spot

    Right off highway but a very short rocky road, be careful if in a car but should be okay. Good cellphone signal and close to the park and right outside town so from a location perspective ita an A+ for proximity. But this is a pile in spot. The main area here is not secluded its a large oval with some little branch offs, nothing is very defined. At night people juat pile in where they can fit and go to sleep. If you venture around and have 4x4 you might be able to find some better spots but dont try it in the dark. Its VERY dark out here. Overall no issues even with others very close by maybe I was lucky but on my night everyone just wanted a safe place to sleep and we all were respectful

    Lonesome Beaver Campground

    Inaccessible without serious off-road gear

    Unfortunately we could not make it to the site. The BLM office said that the road was a "tire popper". This was also confirmed by the nearby gas station attendant... I was also told that in order to avoid tire damage it took as much as 2 hours to get up the mountain for a stretch. That was about 13 mi. I wish I could have made it. It would have been an excellent place for stargazing.

    Starr Spring Campground

    Very dark nights. Isolated. Good accommodations.

    My stay at this secluded campsite from August 20th to 23rd was a welcome escape. With only two other campers in sight during my four-night stay, the spacious sites felt very private and peaceful. The area is also perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, offering quick access for off-roading. I was also able to easily find a safe target practice area within a mile of my campsite. The campsites are only $10 a night and run on the honor system, which was a great value. The highlight of the trip, however, was seeing my son’s reaction to the wildlife. He was thrilled to no end to have been able to pet a bat, a toad, and a salamander. The site is well-equipped, with two bathrooms and three water spigots. Just remember to bring your own drinking water, as the water from the spigots is likely non-potable. The creek that runs through part of the camp was a nice bonus, and the plenty of shade made the hot August days more bearable. Unfortunately, campfires weren't allowed during this time of year. We were also unlucky to not have a truly clear night the whole week, but whenever the clouds broke, the darkness was unbelievable, and you could see everything possible in the night sky. Since we were there during the new moon, this was one of the darkest sites in Utah. I think it would be better to go back in the fall to enjoy more moderate temperatures and a clearer view of the sky.

    Moonscape Overlook

    Nice spot but crowded at times

    The road in to moonscape is not too bad, be careful if the roads are wet or rain is in the future. The easier route is 155D. Incredible views at suns rise and sunset, be prepared for lots of people during those times. Otherwise it was fairly quiet and we were one of three small groups camping overnight at the edge of the cliffs. Not much to do other than to take in the incredible views and enjoy the quiet once the people leave.

    We visited in August and it was a warm, but cooled off nicely for bedtime.
