"Great location about 15 minutes from Devil’s Tower. Great area that has flat grassy areas for tents or large flat-ish dirt areas that could fit a decently large camper. Was a great stop."
"Site was flat and gravel. Spot for tents just up the hill. No fire ring, no picnic table, no hook-ups or garbage. Dispersed camping / boondocking. No fee. "
"Paved road leading to gravel turn-offs, very manageable terrain. We arrived early evening and about half of the sites were available."
"Single lane forest road with a pull-off camp. Will fit maybe, 2 medium rigs."
"There is a pit toilet at each and several places where others have made fire rings out of rocks. The sand creek has plenty of fish to try your luck at."
"Access to the local creek. Sort of difficult to find a level spot but we made it work. We fit comfortably in a truck camper but I wouldn't go too much bigger here. Good Verizon service!"
"We had a 4WD truck with rooftop tent. High clearance is not necessary for road."
"There were multiple pull off dispersed camping areas all along the Mt. Roosevelt road. The road is easy to drive if coming off the CanAm Hwy side of the mountain."
"There is an OHV trail just outside the quarry border, but wasn't used very much. Had just a few people come and stayed the night. Would definitely stay here again. "
"It's close to town, Spearfish is an awesome place, easy drive to much of the northern Nlack Hills area."
"There are a few dispersed camping spots along this road which also holds the trailhead for Mt. Roosevelt Friendship Tower."
"The first pull of recommended was too steep for our van. We pulled off at a treat spot about 1/4 mile down the road with awesome views. Close to town but quiet"
"I just needed a place to stop and car camp. I was going to stay at a campground I."
"Woke up to a beautiful sunrise next to the reservoir. Plenty of sites to choose from with vault toilet close enough to walk between sites."
"Partially shaded with nice views and extremely quiet. Pit toilets down the road a bit."
"Flat, just off the road, dry, among trees, lovely view. Other campers around but still peaceful & private enough."
GuideGreat location about 15 minutes from Devil’s Tower. Great area that has flat grassy areas for tents or large flat-ish dirt areas that could fit a decently large camper. Was a great stop.
Road on the way in is steep and rocky. AWD recommend and would be very difficult to navigate if it’s super muddy.
GuideLast mile of gravel going in to site was pretty rough. Sign indicated that the road would be impassible if wet/raining. Site was flat and gravel. Spot for tents just up the hill. No fire ring, no picnic table, no hook-ups or garbage. Dispersed camping / boondocking. No fee. Fantastic view of the country-side including Devil's Tower. Site appeared secluded and unused. Another vehicle with a tent did join us during the night, but there was room for both of us!
GuidePaved road leading to gravel turn-offs, very manageable terrain. We arrived early evening and about half of the sites were available. I camped with my tundra double cab and 5x8 trailer and could maneuver through dispersed sites comfortably. Going up the mountain from Sundance the sites on the right side of the road were beautiful, about 7 sites, not all the same size. There are more sites on the gravel drive to the left side of the road but there was a large wet spot I could not get through, but I’m sure other vehicles could. Fire pits are at most spots, just be cautious of fire regulations and wind. We were about 35 minutes from Devils Tower too which was a plus!
Over all, great site, PLEASE pack in / pack out. Keep these sites clean! If trash is left pick up after others and help keep these places the way they’re intended and most importantly have fun!
ScoutWhat a great view, camping only 15 minutes from Devils Tower. The road up was bumpy but very manageable. 1 spot with primo view but you can fit others around you. Just don't be the asshat that parks facing you! Would have been more respectful to face the other way and put non door side to others.
RangerLoved this spot! The dirt road right off the highway is pristine, not even washboardy. Once you branch right for the last mile or so, there are a few small rocks and ruts but still smooth. At the top of the hill, there’s a left turn that splits - if you go right, you’ll go across a big flat meadow and at the end find a beautiful site with a great view of Devil’s Tower. We were surprised only one other car was here on a Saturday night. We experienced intense wind overnight, but still loved the locatiob
TravelerWell-kept road, several spots to park and camp. Some beautiful spots overlooking Deadwood. 5-10 minutes from town. We had a 4WD truck with rooftop tent. High clearance is not necessary for road.
TravelerPretty well maintained dirt road up to 2 sites that look across the Devils Tower. The drive up (at least at night) feels like you're in the middle of nowhere but you're actually pretty close to Devil's Tower. We got in after dark and the two spots were taken. One up on the grassy hill is a large flat spot that could accommodate a few camp set-ups, if we showed up in daylight probably would have asked. The lower one right off the road (west) has a turnaround and could accommodate 2-3 vehicles who are camping with eachother. We camped between the two sites since we came up at dark and wanted to give the folks camping there adequate space. Quiet, serene, mildy buggy.
GuideIt rained the last two days but I was able to get up the hill in an overloaded AWD. There were some pretty hefty ruts so choose your lines carefully. I rolled up pretty late, maybe 7p. There was only one other person here and of course they took the spot. The lower spot was a big mud pit and the upper field is overgrown. It looks like a fire came through here maybe last year so the grass has bounced back really well in some spots. Seems pretty quiet human-wise with lots of birds and big noises, which I prefer. Not too far from Devil’s Tower and a great spot for me to stop over for the night. If I stayed longer, I’d nab that good spot. LOL.
LegendThere are a few dispersed camping spots along this road which also holds the trailhead for Mt. Roosevelt Friendship Tower. There was one pull through site that has no campfire signs and then two or three other spots. We seemed to be lucky and got the last open spot. We got here around 4 pm. The site we got was beautiful and had a lot of room for us to pitch a tent. Plenty of trees to go pee in but also an open spot where we could stargaze through the tent. There was some traffic on the road, more than you would think for such a windy gravel road. The first part of the road up until the trailhead had quite a bit of washboard which was a little scary on the sharp curves with steep drop offs. Enough Verizon cell service to text and make calls. Enough AT&T service to get WiFi on our SubaruLink. No water that we saw that we could use or filter. Had some people pull into our spot at different times not knowing it was taken. 9:30 pm was the last one.
