Nice low-fee BLM camp

The scenery is gorgeous, sites are comfy and widely spaced. $15 or half-off for Golden Age. Restrooms and tables. Zilch for cell service, bring your Starlink.

Access from I-70 is about 20 miles of graded dirt road with occasional washboard. From the other direction (UT-10), most of the road is much better, and there's the Wedge Overlook along the way (5-mile side trip).

If you prefer a bit more privacy, there are single campsites way up Buckhorn Road to the north.

Nice CG for smaller rigs.

This is the sister CG to the North Swinging Bridge CG. This CG has much smaller sites and only a few will allow a larger TT to get backed in ok. 11 sites, $15/$7.50 senior. NO WATER, NO DUMPSTERS, NO CELL SIGNAL. All sites are fcfs, no reservations. Views are fantastic and night sky stars also. Very quiet at night. However to get here you have to drive 20-25 miles of gravel roads.

Great spot for Little Grand Canyon hike

This campground is small, primitive, and quiet. We stayed here for a night before starting the Little Grand Canyon hike, just across (and up) the road. It was the perfect place to stay for a short rest before venturing out on our journey. We were there in early Spring and we only had two neighbors. Since it's a BLM campground, you can bring your dog, which is great for the area. The sunrise was beautiful, it made for a great start to our day.
