Kitchen Corral Wash

You do not need 4-wheel drive to get to this parking area however I will say I was there in Aug 24’ and there was a lot of plant growth in the driving area to drive over. Nothing that would scratch my suv up but just noting in case someone decides to take a sedan back this way. I was the only one there and it was quiet and peaceful. I did get some service on AT&T but it wasn’t good for using the internet. Texting was fine.

Thanks to the good review and info regarding 4x4vehicle not mandatory we went on that place for the night.we were alone and had a good night despite the proximity with the road we barely heard it. Less than the coyotes during cooking ^^ We recommend the place. Only weak point is the sun coming late, we ate breakfast in the shadow early morning.

As other reviewers have said, disregard the sign at the beginning of the road saying that a 4x4 is required for this road. We made it to the first pullout fine in our 26ft class c. Maybe further in the road gets rougher, but as far as reaching the boondock spots the road is ok, just some washboarding in the dirt. 

The first pullout is large with an easy turnaround for trailers and large rigs and there are several flat areas. There were two fire rings set up so I’m guessing when it gets busy you may need to share, though we didn’t see anyone in this area at all when we stayed. 

You can hear the road but it sounds like a distant whoosh and it’s not obnoxious. Cell service is ok, weak but usable for ATT and Verizon. The cell booster helped a lot.

Great camping spot and so easy to get to. Nice dirt road. Don’t pay attention to the 4WD warning sign. You can get to many spots right off the road without it. We went maybe 1/4 mile off the highway and found a wide open field. Camper vans and RVs and 2 WD would be able to camp this

Don’t be deterred by the sign, a 4WD car is not needed to get here.

Service for ATT and Verizon, but is was a single bar each. We couldn’t really work here, but you can send messages.

The site only has a natural fire ring, but it is free and super accessible.

Just dispersed camping here and lot of space.

If you do have 4WD, there is a road we hiked up that has nice views on the cliffs 360 degrees.
