Kelley Stand Rd - NF Dispersed Camping

SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Hikers and wildlife observers heading into the Green Mountain National Forest have a free dispersed option along Kelley Stand Road, a dirt road access route in Sunderland, Vermont. The site is larger than many dispersed spots in the area, with a layout that curves past the driveway into a circular open area surrounded by thin trees, giving campers the option to tuck further in for more privacy. No facilities of any kind are present. Barred Owls have been heard from the site at night, and animal remains have been found past the treeline. Campers wanting nearby alternatives can compare Green Mountain NF Dispersed off Kelley Stand Road or browse campgrounds around Sunderland. This site works best for self-sufficient campers comfortable with primitive conditions and dirt road access.

Interesting, decent site

Free dispersed camping site in the Green Mountain National Forest, off a dirt road. The site curves around past the driveway so you can tuck up into the trees to be more private. The upper part there has a circular open area, surrounded by thin trees. There’s a fire ring set up midway on the site. It felt more isolated than other sites I’ve stayed at and there were quite a few animal sounds in the woods, including large animal bones left past the treeline. They seem to be left behind from people (based off of how the bones were cut). Dispersed camping so don’t expect facilities of any sort. Decent site and pretty large compared to some of the other spots. Heard Barred Owls in the distance which was awesome. Uploaded a video of the site at night and pics of the area on a map that my friend was able to pull up.
