LegendPoverty Flat BLM Dispersed
Sort of a dusty TT OHV hangout. Lots of residential camping seems to be occurring. Sandy dusty road could be muddy. Lower road section has a steep rough section. Best spots are on top where the road levels off. Dense juniper pinyon trees so solar is a challenge. Positive is close to the east entrance of Zion NP. Free Dispersed, no toilets, no water, no tables, no trash. Cell signal is iffy. I found the area ick due to lack of views, crappy tree vegetation and all the residential camping RVs with no one around creeped me out

Directions
Travel along Highway 9, 0.7 miles past the Zion Mountain Ranch, there will be a cattle guard on the south side of the road. Turn south there onto the Poverty Road, or BLM route 70, and continue for about half of a mile to reach the Poverty Kiosk. All you will find at the kiosk is a Kanab Field Office Transportation Map. It is recommended that only ATVs/UTVs travel beyond the Poverty Kiosk. The route becomes extremely narrow and difficult for street vehicles, even if you have a four-wheel-drive, high-clearance vehicle. BLM route 70 is impassable when wet due to the clay based soil, which creates deep, slippery mud. For more information, detailed maps, and current conditions, contact the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument Visitor Center in Kanab, UT.
