  Canyon Rd Dispersed

  Good spot to crash for the night!

  We rented a van in SLC and needed a quick spot to spend the night on the way to Arches/canyon lands. This was easy to find at dusk with a clear road. LOTS of trash around. You could hear the highway a little bit but the noise wasn’t too bad. We only saw one other person who drove in and then left. There is a nice big gas station/truck stop about a mile away open 24 hours so we went there to use the bathroom and get gas. Not sure why this post calls it Canyon Road. It’s off of Consumers Road then Dump road. We did have service with T-Mobile and Verizon.

  Horse Canyon Road - Dispersed Open Area

  Beautiful scenery quiet

  Stayed behind the rest area fairly close to the road. No one else here. Nice scenery quiet. Signs of past partying. Little bit of trash I picked up. Other than that I will stay here again.Gorgeous sunset

  Sheep Creek Dispersed Camping Area

  Quiet and Quaint!

  It was essentially a bunch of RVs and cars parked in a field, so minimal privacy, but feels very safe! Cows come out at night and wander about, so look out for cow patties!

  Currant Creek Rd Dispersed

  Dispersed camping overlooking Currant Reservoir and Creek

  Plenty of dispersed spots along the ridge road. Most have easy pull in access and fire rings. Beautiful views from multiple spots along the ridge but comes with the expected exposure to wind/sun.  More privacy for the spots further along the road some nestled in beautiful aspen groves. It is a great area. We camped overnight and fly fished the currant the next day. It was July 4 weekend but still not crowded.

  Bull Mesa Pullout

  Off Dump Road

  This spot was a little hard to locate because it’s on trust land and the spots look like junk piles. Yuck! There was so much ammo casings on the ground it looked like a war zone. Obviously the locals use it as a shooting range and do not clean up after themselves. We went on down dump road a little bit and found a spot tucked in the canyon and out of site of the road for a little wind break and privacy. I added that location because it was not as bad. Still to much trash laying around though. I don’t understand why people can not take care of these free resources so they are not taken away.

  Dispersed Uinta Campsite

  Open space, nature and road noise

  Plenty of spots on an easy dirt road, campfire rings and lots of space. There's so many birds and critters so you get the nature sounds but it's close to the road so there's road noise all night. Beautiful space. I think I heard a moose in the night-possibly not, but possibly?

  Skyline Drive

  Great spot away from highway!

  This spot was great. We arrived at dusk and it was still easy to find, although there was a long dirt road (about 2 miles) to get to spots marked with a campfire pit. Two or three cars drove by, but it was still secluded enough that we had no worries. We found a spot by a beautiful stream with cool water. Great stargazing. Safe!

  Canyon Rd Dispersed

  Great overnight stop

  This is trust land so you will see where a lot of people come back here to target practice. Sadly they do not clean up any of their trash. The area is nice, large and very private.

  Sheep Creek Dispersed Camping Area

  Solid Option to Avoid Offroading

  As described, it's a big field with a bunch of RVs. That being said, if you don't have an off-road capable vehicle (like me) - it's a solid option and there are some pretty mountain views. You can buy the permit online. No one checked the permit for the three days I was there.

  CO2 Road Dispersed Campsite

  The Purple Sands

  This camping spot is a good place to stay if passing through to Salt Lake or to Moab. There is not much out here; however, the gas station before Wellington, is nice! The gas station has amazing coffee, and we discovered it has showers and laundry. The gas station also had firewood for sale out front.

  The camp spot has a couple of fire rings. You can still hear the traffic, although not terribly bad. There is broken glass in the surrounding area so be aware. Avoid this spot if it is raining at all as it will give your tires a nice coat of slick mud; even an off road tire can get stuck with this kind of sticky mud!! On the upside it’s a remote camping spot, and the shrubbery offers a good wind break.

  CO2 Road Dispersed Campsite

  Easy night of sleep

  Found this area on the way through and decided to stop. There are plenty of trees around for firewood, the top 2 to 4 inches of topsoil are soft, which is nice for leveling out your camping in. There’s some ready stuff on the bottom but nothing I had to put, my rig into four-wheel-drive for. Make sure you get far enough away from the highway or you will hear the road noise that never stops. There are places to camp all over throughout the area. I left early the next morning and saw four other people out and about.

  Plenty of space

  I spent a night there in April 2024 during a couple days of rain. It was pretty muddy, but that was to be expected. There is space for many campers and it's an easy, paved road up to the park. Cellular was pretty strong as well.

  Large campsite/pullout on the side if the road, the road in was a oittle rough but any adventure van or RV with a confident driver should be fine. Good stop between Moab and SLC.

  New Joe's Bouldering Area Campground

  This camp is now halfway between an organized campground and dispersed camp

      This BLM campground now has designated campsites, a picnic table, large deep fire rings, pit toilets and no trash service. Also no water.  The actual site now in October is 

  somewhat overgrown with tumble weeds. Ground is very rocky but there are quite a few tents pitched.  

       Views are 7 on a 10 scale.

       Camp fee is now $15 per night. We used a senior pass and paid $7.50

        There also appears to be true dispersed camping on BLM land just to the NE of this organized camp and more about a quarter mile south on a dirt road.  There don’t appear to be any picnic tables, fire rings or toilets.

  Dispersed Uinta Campsite

  Beautiful area. Rough dirt roads

  We came up the end of August into Seprember. This is during the bow deer hunting. We were lucky to find one open camp ground. Bow hunters occupy mostly all the camp grounds.

  The higher up you go the dirt roads get really rocky and rough.

  Juniper Point — Fred Hayes State Park at Starvation

  Great Site to Pop Into

  We loved jumping in the reservoir and the fishing is great. Downside, lots of bugs… spiders were an issue still plaguing us a week later in all of our gear. The flies are an issue. Also, people that come here treat this site like trash and trash it. Spent a solid couple hours just cleaning up glass around our site for our dogs. Other than that it was great

  Willow Creek Road - Dispersed Site

  Nice little spot to youself

  Just off of willow creek rd. Turn left at the map coordinates. You are at almost 8000 ft so not a winter camping spot. There is some ATV traffic but respectfully slow. Good roads in but we got there on a Sunday night and quite a bit of traffic heading out. I imagine the weekends are busy. Lots of spots to camp along the road but this one seemed the most private.
