Cedar Mountain Dispersed - Closed to Camping

Had the large lot at the coordinates (marked with a fire pit) to ourselves, but there are two or three smaller camping spots along the way up that you can stop at. View was beautiful!! Takes about 30min to get to the site bc of the rocks on the road and is just wide enough for one vehicle but if you have decent clearance and four wheel drive you can make it. Also great signal bc you are close to the tower at the top, had 5G. Says no camping at the bottom bc that small area is a parking lot for the horse tours next door, but there are camping signs as you go up.

Popular with locals as a trailhead for day hikes. Very rough access road. Camping area was marked with no camping signs. Stayed one night then moved on.

We stayed here for a couple of days. Took the road to the open spot to park like everyone else. It’s not hard to access but you don’t want to drive any further if you don’t have 4WD or an OHV.

There are tons of places to hike to or take and OHV to tent areas further up the mountain.

It is about a 5 mile hike up. We did this and got all the way to the top. People on their sides by sides, Bikes and horses praised us. I imagine not too many people do the entire hike in one day. It was invigorating!

Definitely worth the stop!

In town there is a dump station that you do NOT have to pay for so I suggest getting that done before you go any further west of there. All the dump stations from there to the west coast cost. Not even worth using your indoor bathroom.

There is also a place next door with horses if you’d like to take a paid horseback tour. We didn’t do this but considered it. I bet it would be just as beautiful.

Most definitely I would stay here again.

There is a large open space at Lat 44.509971 -Long 109.122568 We parked there along with six other vehicles. Plenty of room. The dirt road was too rough for us to go any farther even with our four wheel drive. Not worth the risk for us since we were only looking for a place to sleep. No services
