The potash production canals north of Interstate 80 (I-80), located just east of the Bonneville Salt Flats, are leased and managed by Intrepid Potash and are located on a mix of private property, State of Utah School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (SITLA) land, and Bureau of Land Management-managed public lands. The canals are industrial facilities leased to Intrepid Potash for potash mining activities and are not designed or safe for public recreation. Therefore, the public should not access, swim, float, kayak, canoe, or pursue any other recreation activities in these industrial canals. In addition, the Utah Highway Patrol has indicated that parking along I-80 to access to the canals is illegal and extremely dangerous due to the proximity to the interstate highway.

Dispersed Site at the Base of A Hill - BLM
Peaceful Dispersed Camping, Silver Island Mountains
The dispersed site that I camped at is about 100 yards north of this particular site on an unnamed dead end track. Both sites are located off of Lower Rishel Peak Rd. Large site with a clean rock fire ring. Mostly level gravel surface. It's on a rise a little more than a half-mile away from Silver Island Loop Rd. There is a view of the Bonneville Salt Flats. No hiking trails, but it's easy to wander around in the desert and visit a nearby cave. Very peaceful. No one else around. Stayed 2 nights. Loved it here.

Camping outside bonneville salt flats
Super close to the Bonneville salt flats. Large open area and would accommodate larger rvs and then some off-road spots that would need to be for 4x4. It was great for a night, but I wouldn't stay longer. Be prepared for the wind!

Salt Flat camping
Set up camp near Bonneville salt flats above the Silver Island Mountains backcountry byway. There are many campsites and all are far away from each other. As well as far away from highway. Site is very quiet but the flies before sundown are crazy. No bug spray works at all. They lick it off your skin and bite you regardless. Once sun goes down it's calm and peaceful. Great place to camp.

It was okaaaay.
I had difficulties finding the park. There were no clear signs. Over all it was just the basic necessities. I would recommend they plant some trees, offer showers and laundry room. Some added stairs would be nice to get up the hill to the paved side walk to get to the casino. I traveled alone with my travel trailer and I can't say I felt super safe walking from the Casino to my RV at 12am but it was manageable. I did have fun at the Casino and they are building a new Noodle House wish it was open during my visit. But it was quiet for me. I would recommend if you are passing through.

Very dispersed
When we arrived we noticed a lot of camping site options. However, it was very windy make sure if your in a tent the stakes are down properly. Directions are accurate to site locations. We went during the 4th of July week and noticed it got very busy towards the end of the night, large group gatherings.

Quiet
Plenty of space - quiet -quiet- quiet- can’t even hear the highway- great place to stop and relax for the night

Peaceful/Simple
There’s a lot of land, it can be confusing to know what is allowed, but just look for other overnighters, take a spot. Made a nice quick night stopover while roadtripping.

Windy, would stay again
Like others have said, there’s plenty of spots for everyone. There were some other folks out there, but no one bothered us and we didn’t bother them (sound really didn’t seem to travel too much!). We stayed pretty close to the road and located a fire pit. The spot was beautiful and we had a full moon, which was amazing to watch rise over the flats. Temperatures were nice as well. The wind picked up sometime in the early morning hours and never stopped, which made packing up the tent an interesting feat.
The ground is hard, so make sure to bring something soft to sleep on. The stacks were also a bit hard to get into place, even with a mallet. We also saw (what we assume to be) a kangaroo mouse, which was cool!
Definitely would consider this area again, although we may choose a different spot. Stayed June 21, 2024. FREE campsite.

Good enough
It was incredibly windy and dusty but based on its location it's to be expected. People were nice. Bathrooms were clean. Showers were clean and private. No complaints.

Serenity NOW!
My german shepherd and I had a beautiful nights sleep here. Camping sites are very spread out. No need to worry about noisy neighbors. We're close enough to the freeway that it's not way off the beat and path, but zero road noise. We were woken up to a beautiful sunrise. A great breakfast and back on the road to pennsylvania.
Notes: The main road silver island road is almost non stop rumble strips buckle up! Depending on how far in you wanna go for wheel drive maybe recommended. Site are clean and spread out everywhere. Sit back and enjoy the sunshine 🌞

Pilot Peak Lookout
Pilot Peak Lookout - Dispersed BLM
Bonneville Speedway Access Rd > Left on Leppy Pass Rd till you reach a strange mysterious government building > Right on Silver Island Loop Rd > veer right on Volcano West Rd
Dope spot on a bluff looking out at the entire valley, with Pilot Peak prominently featured. Plenty of space to maneuver and very level. Already some fire pits.
Watch the rocks on Volcano West rd as you approach the lookout - I made it with my 25 ft travel trailer, but be careful you don't bottom it out.
You can see for miles in every direction, but limited protection from wind. Wasn't too bad when I was there but I imagine it could be.
Super close to West Wendover and the salt flats. There's dozens of campsites in this area so definitely go exploring. While the roads are generally in good shape, some of have pretty bad wash boarding, especially when towing.
Some cell reception, great for Starlink obviously.

Awesome place need 4x4
If you have 4x4 and some ground clearance you can make it to the top. Great secluded spot.

Great Spot - Easy for 2WD Vehicles
Great spot to dispersed camp on BLM land. If you keep driving the road, there are some secluded areas that have relatively level parking. The road is about what you would expect from a BLM Road which is bumpy and about 25 mph for most cars.  in my one night here did not see anyone else pass by and woke up to a great view of the sunrise over the salt lake flats.

Great view and place to crash
We arrived late, and this was a great place to crash for the night. We had dark skies. Perfect for stargazing. Woke up to beautiful skies. It was very windy when we were here the first time, but on our return trip three weeks after the first stop, there was a light breeze.

Beautiful Overlook of the Flats
This spot has gorgeous views of the flats and the mountains. However, it can get windy. It was 6-8 mph winds when we stayed and our rooftop tent was not exactly happy about it.

Wide open free BLM
Exit Bonneville Speedway. Head N past Sinclair (on right). Veer to left, which is Leepy (if you stay right youre on the Peninsula easy turn around at end) about a mile in Leppy veer to the right on the dirt road. It is wash boarded but totally doable. That leads you to the BLM parking lot. There are tons of spots all around there. To the left will lead you back to Leepy. To the right there are tons more spots. Some level, some not. You will be able to find a turn around spot (I'm towing 33' TT) if you don't want to go the, what I was told 40 mile loop. It is wash boarded. Only potable water I found was KOA in West Wendover. They also have a dump. Has a tendency to get VERY windy.

Potable Water

Great Dispersed Camping
Awesome dispersed camping, a little sheltered from the wind up against the hills, with great views and killer sunrises. Lots of spots, just keep driving out the road till you find one you like. Watch out for rattlesnakes.

BLM by Salt Flats - Dispersed Site
Amazing Spot
This is one of my favorite spots we’ve camped! This particular spot is at the base of the mountains and had a large flat area perfect for our Sprinter, a fire pit, and large rock formation great for climbing. We even had some prong horned sheep near us on the mountain. The sunrise and stars at night were unreal. It was easy to get to, a long dirt road that splits off from the Bonneville Speedway road. The road is washboard but not bad at all in comparison to a lot of them we have been on at other sites. There are a lot of spots on this same road in both directions.
If you have dogs with you, this was also a great place to have them off the leash and play fetch since no one was around.

Simple but nice!
We arrived late at night and our host (Lucy) left us perfect info to find our site quickly in the dark. It was quite a surprise to wake up and see a pretty empty but lovely campground! Lucy was so kind to us and I wish we could have stayed longer! The Casinos are within walking distance but we did not feel unsafe. The campground is very large (but was empty in October) and we could tell it was very well taken care of! Cute store with a lot of nice souvenirs!
