OHV and equestrian enthusiasts will find Rock Springs Bench serves as a staging area for exploring the expansive trail network across this BLM-managed plateau. The dispersed camping area sits on a dirt access road that multiple campers warn becomes impassable during wet conditions. Jeff R. notes the road "can get impassable when it rains (and believe them when they say impassable!)."
The immediate area contains six to seven dispersed sites, with additional camping options further down the road toward Highway 389, though that route faces potential washouts and rockfall blockages. RV campers report successful access with rigs up to 36 feet, finding level spots with pull-through configurations. Several sites include established fire pits. The location puts campers within minutes of Kodachrome Basin State Park, making it a convenient base for exploring both state park attractions and surrounding public lands.
Summer temperatures can be intense at this elevation, but spring and fall provide more comfortable conditions. The area typically remains quiet, with campers often having sites to themselves even on weekend nights. Grant B. describes the setting as "mostly quiet and away from it all." For those wanting developed amenities, Arch Campground — Kodachrome Basin State Park offers full facilities nearby.
