    Capitol Reef National Park Dispersed Camping

    A great hike

    If you have a 4x4, we recommend pulling back slightly to the right as far as you can. We went back and got tucked into a more secluded nook with a good fire ring. It looks bumpy and uneven, but it’s possible to level a vehicle that’s 21 feet and under.

    The hike up above the site is really beautiful. The trail took us up above the cliff edge that borders the site. From there you have sweeping views of the valley and out to the mountains in both directions.

    Important to note:

    1. There are no toilet facilities and no places to dig a hole
    2. There were people using generators
    3. If you tuck back into a far site, you can avoid most the the road and generator noise
    4. If it’s going to rain, this would be a slick and slippery location
    5. The Wild Rabbit Cafe in Torrey is an excellent place for breakfast and coffee

    Haycock Ranch Road BLM

    Private, quiet and great view

    We liked this spot however we could not go in very far due to the fact that our trailer has low clearance. There are a lot of long ruts from water run off.

    There are two dumpsters near the entrance. Area was clean and good cell service.

    Location is ideal for area slot canyons etc.

    Spencer Flat Dispersed Camping - Grand Staircase Nat Mon

    Quiet, Secluded, SANDY

    Although the sand wasn’t a surprise, i was shocked at how much it stuck to everything LOL! But the site had lots of dedicated spots for camping and went on the quite a few miles. The view was beautiful, but we were nervous about mountain lions as we noticed a lot of tracks when we arrived, and saw even more next to our car in the morning as we were leaving. The road in isn’t very rough, just lots of sand and small bumps. Would stay here again!

    Loved this stay!

    Up on a mesa (not super high that it’s a tough climb), on Notom road which is paved, then turn on dirt road not far from Hwy 24 (maybe 1/4-1/2 mile). Only two other campers about a football field apart from me. Amazing view of Henry mountains and sunrise!! Made it slowly in my front wheel drive van over the rocks that stick up. No problem. Just slow.

    Boulder Mtn-Roundup Flat Dispersed

    Boulder Mt- Roundup Flat dispersed

    This area is close to the summit elevation of Boulder Mt at 9550 elv. A rough rocky road leaves a scenic pull off all g hwy #12 and heads to some Aspen stands and a corral. The best sites are in the vicinity of the corral. Good cell signal, but no water, no dumpsters, however the views are great. In the fall season, the yellow aspens are spectacular.

    Quiet and good

    There are signs mentioning danger like "nearly no car can make this road" or "floods". The street is a little bit bumpy in the beginning but then fine.

    For me it was perfectly fine and had a good sleep.

    Absolutely no reception on any provider for me

    Not Good for Tents

    I tried to set up camp here and was thrilled about the views, but came back to camp a few hours later and my tent was half way down a mountain and torn up on the bottom. Decided to move on. Very windy and exposed. Would be best suited for RVs/trailers or car camping. Not sure if having a fire up here would be wise or possible.

    Great view easy access

    No issues finding a spot for our 30ft 5th wheel. Very quiet and right off the highway. Plenty of spots mostly level. Can be very windy. Good t-mobile coverage

    Great Spot!

    Easy to find. We arrived around 6 pm with multiple spots still available. The views were beautiful ! Some of the spots are close to the road but we grabbed the one in the northwest corner and couldn’t hear any road noise. We didn’t use it but there was a porta potty near the entrance.

    Road 1280 East of Torrey Utah

    Lots of space!

    This side of the BLM land is just south of the two when you enter the dispersed area. There are TONS of spaces to camp, so many that when we were looking we eventually stopped and turned around because they just kept going! We have stayed in this area the last 2 nights and we have not seen more than 4-5 other groups camping at one time. There are a decent amount of trees that provide shade/wind breaks and plenty of fire pits to find a spot for you. Internet connection is pretty good for Verizon.

    Good!

    We didn’t end up staying here but scoped it out looking for a spot. It looked great, a positive is that there’s porta potties and plenty of space for many campers. Negatives were that it was higher ground so it was fairly windy for fires and that it was really close to the road. Collectively it looked good, we just decided to go somewhere else.

    Hells Backbone / 153 (large site)

    Nice wooded site next to road with view

    Coming from Escalante, this site was one of the first high up the mountain that offered a long line of site. We pulled our van right in. There’s plenty of space and nice trees. Even though Escalante was hot, it was nice up here.

    Upper Creek Falls Trail

    Very dispersed

    The access is close to the main road. It is steep but then is very flat. The campgrounds are in a circle and looks like people like doing donuts here you can see the tracks. There were other campers very far

    Horse Canyon Camping

    Great views

    Great views. We were about 250 yards off the main road. Only one spot here. Maybe more further back. High clearance vehicles only. We hit out bumper in one spot with 11" of clearance on the truck. No trailers or RVs. No cell or trash. Pack it in, pack it out. We found the site mostly clean other than a piece of TP under a rock and a used paper towel in the fire pit. We picked them up for the careless other camper that was there. Technically you need a free permit but without going all the way to Escalante, not sure how you'd get one. If you go through Escalante on your way to this spot, you can get one at the visitor center.

    Crowded

    This area is right off the highway and had 25 or more campers there. Full size rigs, trailers, vans and tents. No thank you. Keep going, you'll find something.
