"Cool overlook down to Green River. Quiet. If this site is full there are other areas to you can pull into. Dirt road with some washboards and ruts."
"Easy dirt road access to many camping spots. Att had great service, very windy and some road noise from the interstate. 10/10 would recommend."
"Wide open BLM land."
"If the White Mountain spots are taken this is a good backup. On the down side there is a lot of glass at this site so stay close to the road. Cool overlook into the town."
"Very large dispersed camping area. As the starting point we chose Anvil Draw Boat Ramp."
"We were on the Wyoming side not too far the Buckboard Marina . About a 15 min. drive. We have a 30 ft class A RV and we tow a jeep. We parked at the marina and took the jeep to scout out a site."
"Those are nice dispersed campgrounds. Although there were quite a few RVs while I was there, I managed to find a spot for myself with a great view on the reservoir. It seems to be quite popular. "
"Serene, private, remote yet accessible and mosquitos."
"Several other rigs here and no one is close to each other. Getting over 400mbs on T-Mobile 5g"
"We stayed just outside Buckboard Crossing Campground near 41.23339 N, 109.59618 W and had an amazing experience."
"There are 2 roads each has at least one really nice dispersed camping spot."
"Great views from the top, but we chose a more sheltered site due to the strong chilly wind. Beautiful sunset and sunrise. There were many good sites along the road in as well."
"I came in from the SW side of Little Mountain and couldn’t make it to the top in my AWD Highlander, but there were plenty of flat spots to make camp. It was a tad buggy but overall it was 👍"
"Easy dirt road, pulled 34 foot toy hauler with no problem. Enough space to turn around at the end of the road. Very quiet at night, perfect for sleeping. Rock fire pits available. Very private."
"The dirt road in isn’t too bad and is pretty short, there were plenty of sedans driving in so it’s accessible for most vehicles when the ground is dry."
LegendForest road #839 is a popular dispersed camp area due to the flat topography and the smooth graded dirt road. Close to hwy #44 so some hwy noise. Free dispersed, 16d limit, no water, no trash, no toilets. Cell signal is marginal.
LegendEntrance is marked as Firehole Campground, about 12 miles from Green river. Road is not maintained and deeply rutted. Made it about 5 mi in and created my own turnaround spot as there are none. Ended up in a previously used camping area that has no fire pits or any facilities whatsoever. Fire danger all around so didn't build one. No rocks anywhere to create a fire pit. Nice, Serene and quiet location. No Wildlife to speak of. Great for one night but no service of any kind including cell or gps.
LegendThis is a primitive camping area by Sheep Creek Lake. No amenities, no established campsites, no toilets, no garbage dumpsters, no water, no cell signal. Road access is gravel graved. A primitive boat ramp is available. This lake seems to be more of a Fish and Game nursery lake for raising Colo River Trout.
LegendForest Road #838 is a rough rocky road but is flat so not steep. Several spots in sun or shade. Just off hwy #44 so some hwy noise. No water, no trash, no toilets. Cell signal is marginal.
LegendThis FS road is very rocky, rough and steep, and high clearance and good tires are recommended. Free dispersed camping up first 0.1 mile in pine trees. More sites higher but the road access is tough. No RVs, Travel Trailers, or low clearance vans, imho. Only overlander types should consider camping here IMHO. Cell signal is actually good.
ScoutForest service (dirt) road leading to Lost Dog day use area in Flaming Gorge. There are places along the road to pull off and boondock, with great sunrise and sunset views and occasional glimpses of the gorge. looks like it might be dicey after heavy rain
TravelerWe found this place by chance a couple summers ago when all the campgrounds were packed this one was vacant and absolutely breathtaking. Now we are back again and couldn't be more excited. This dispersed campground is one to check out. It has very secluded spots tucked in the trees. You don't hear the highway traffic even at closer spots to the road. There are endless options for sites. In the summer they do drive cattle through this spot so be mindful that you may hear horses, riders, dogs, and mooing. Also it's fair to note they don't clean up after themselves. It is still worth it.
I do want to note that if you have a low clearance vehicle you must go SLOOOWWW. The road is pretty washed out and has plenty of rocks that will take your oil pan as a souvenir. If you have flipped the axel on your rig I'm sure it would be no problem bringing it down this road and you'd have space to flip around if needed. Tent camping offers more options in this location as there is plenty of grassy spots to put up your tents for a nice rest. Please keep this spot as wild as it is while I write this. Pack it in and pack it OUT. This spot is wild and deserves to stay that way.
GuideLarge enough for multiple rigs. Cool overlook down to Green River. Quiet. If this site is full there are other areas to you can pull into. Dirt road with some washboards and ruts.
TravelerWe stayed just outside Buckboard Crossing Campground near 41.23339 N, 109.59618 W and had an amazing experience. For most of the week, we were completely alone it was quiet, peaceful, and right along the water. Finding a level spot close to the lake can be a little tricky, but nothing too challenging. We tow a 19 ft travel trailer and had no issues getting in or out.The dirt roads in can be rough in places definitely a lot of ruts and potholes likely caused by people driving when it's muddy. That said, we saw smaller vehicles make it just fine. While we wouldn't recommend this for oversized rigs unless you're experienced, the main access road to the sites is wide enough, and a large travel trailer did show up a couple days before we left.There were some folks with off-leash dogs, and traffic picked up a bit on Friday and into the weekend with boaters and folks riding around on UTVs, but it never felt crowded. There is some scattered trash around the area left by others, but nothing overwhelming.Just down the road is the established Buckboard Crossing Campground with a boat launch, vault toilet, and what looks like a dump station and spigot, though the water was shut off during our stay. We ended up dumping and refilling at the Maverik in town, which had free services.
