Cody BLM Dispersed

Lots of great spots and a good road

We stayed here one night after spending the day at Yellowstone. Easy to find, some road noise, but got to hear the nearby rodeo so we didn't mind.

Easy to find, large open spaces, mostly peaceful but a little road noise nearby. Sky isn’t as dark as some say for stargazing because city of Cody is close and cars

Great stop before heading into Cody or Yellowstone! Nice flat camp spots!

We found this spot to stay overnight before visiting Cody and the Buffalo Bill Center of the West. We got a great spot with amazing views of the sunset. The road is rough in just a couple of spots, but we saw vans and a large Class C make it up here no problem. It was very quiet at night. There is a highway to the north, but the hills block most of the noise. Verizon cell reception was poor but did work. Starlink had super fast speeds. Sites were clean and definitely worth a look.

Fantastic spot. Well maintained road. Clean. Beautiful vistas, Elk, etc. A bit windy, but no complaints here. Very minor road noise during the day, but nothing but crickets and Coyotes at night. Would definitely come again.

(October 9th, 2023) This was the perfect place to stop on our way out of Yellowstone! It wasn’t clear if there were designated camping spots, but we parked at the end of an empty plateau like some other vans we could see in the distance. Stargazing was incredible, and the views during sunrise were amazing! It was windy on top of the hills, but fine for car camping.

Had an amazing night staying here on our way to Yellowstone. Easily accessible from the main road and lots of pull offs and turn arounds. We stayed in one of the first designated spots because we had a 20ft camper and there was only one other person we saw staying a couple hundred yards down the road. Great place to stop for the night or stay for a few days, close to town yet isolated in a beautiful desert.

decent amount of spots and far enough between spots for privacy. directions send you farther than entrance if you’re coming from cody. there is a hill and a road to the right with a sign, that’s where the entrance is, not where directions send you.

me and my friends traveled in a truck, a 4runner, and a sedan. we passed a couple open spots but wanted to see what was further down the road. ended up going down a decently sketchy road, sedan made it but decided we better turn back to one of the first spots we found. once we set up camp it was a great 360 view next to the flag pole. upon exploration we found several bones (femur of a cow we think, spine of a smaller animal, and coyote skull we think) didn’t see any animals while we were there but just seemed like remnants of the coyotes we heard at night.

This area is huge so there’s plenty of space to camp, you may see other RVs on the distance. I love that there’s very good phone reception.

Getting into the area was easy and there wasn't much there other than solitude over a vast long and wide grasslands valley and a humongous 360 degree sky view. Very little shelter from the wind, however if you set up against the small hills just right, you'll have just enough shelter when things a blowing. July 1 was dry and there were herds of deer and a small pack of coyotes wailing in the distance at night. Not too far from Cody, which has an endless rodeo in the summer, it was easy to stay here for free and be close to society too. I will stay here again in my future travels through the area.

There are several spots to stay. You here a little bit of noise when u sleep in a tent. Can get windy. But amazing view. People are shooting here.

Easy access and nice view. However, its not really clear where we can stop to camp, but we just found a grassy area and stopped there. Pack in and pack out as always,

We stopped there on our way to Yellowstone . was nothing there but was nice for the rest if you continue going down it gets bad, we had to back up, no good for rv’s, it will be good for overlanders the benefits of camping in the bottom is it will not be as windy as the top was. It was 1 hr away from Yellowstone park. over all nice view to wake up.

Quiet and peaceful setting.

Open spaces, enough room for my dog to run around off leash, cell service and quiet.

Big flat area up top, another down lower, and multiple spots as you drive down into the basin. It’s desolate, has no services, but these are excellent spots near the road, and are mostly accessible to sedans if the roads are dry.

Place was empty on a recent Tuesday eve.

Dirt road driving in. Only one other camper on site (in view). We attempted to drive down the road to the bottom but stopped + turned around due to muddy terrain. We chose to stay on the top along the right road as you come in. Several clearings- perfect to park.

Took goldwing to yellow stone. On way back stopped and was great. One tuck drove around us at a considerate distance. Around 9:30pm. No big deal. Was one other van parked where we first came in.

We bookdocked for 14 days in this beautiful spot along side a huge canyon! There was a stream at the bottom and 5 springs running out of the mountain across from our camping spot. We also saw lots of deer, a moose and watched locals drive 900 head of cattle down the road. Yes, they said there were 900!
