Quiet In The Woods
Loads of sites along the FS roads out here, you don’t have to look hard, easier with more ground clearance

Solitude and crisp Fall Mornings
Very few other boondockers, and well dispersed. Very quiet with minimal traffic.

Great Spot!
A little way off of WY-130 on a good dirt road. Good for up to mid-size trailers or smaller. Scattered informal sites, no water or hookups, two pit toilets. Signs indicate that camping is OK. Beautiful location on the North Platte River.

Cow Creek Rd boat launch and campsite
no frills, a great boondock for the night
A dirt road about 1.25 miles leading to a boat ramp, with parking for cars/ trailers. There is a bridge with a 12ton limit per vehicle. more allowed if you are towing. peaceful and quiet at night with a very nice trail and bridge over the river . This is not really a campsite, just a nice free place to spend the night and then move on, but you can stay up to 5 days. had dirty bathrooms, no toilet paper.

Miracle Mile Fishing
Plenty of camping, epic fishing, and tons of water! This camp spot is between 2 reservoirs and offers plenty of camping for RVs or tents right on the water with access to restrooms. Amazing fishing and floating opportunities. Make sure to get all of your shopping needs before heading out, because the closest marina for restocking is about 40 minutes away. There is no cell phone reception. But it's all 100% worth it if fishing is your thing... you'll soon learn why it's called The Miracle Mile.

Peaceful and quiet
Clearly marked directing you to the location. Bumpy dirt road until you reach the lot. It’s a parking lot camping location. Clearly marked camping area designated (5 days max). Clean, quiet, will stay again.

Secluded and quiet
Good spot . Road was very iffy for my 2wd sedan, but I made it. Perfect on the way in or out of medicine bow.

Great stay
Stayed one night at the coordinates of camper 1 . Had a great time with my dog, very close to medicine bow, and awesome views of the river. Heard no cars throughout the night, there were three other campers I believe .

The perfect wind
Lovely location with secluded spots. The stars and view were awesome and the wind blew just right all night.

Riverside camp spot
I had a rough time at this campsite, but I don’t want to discount it entirely. There were tons of mosquitoes. My spot was out in the open so when thunderstorms rolled through I opted to sleep in my car. There was a couple different spots, mine was away from some of the seemingly main spots. Beautiful riverside
slowicagtGuideFS RD 103 Dispersed
FS Rd 103 and FS Rd 200
Great camping spot within Medicine Bow National Forest. Some of this area requires a $5 day fee which can be paid online or using an envelop system with cash.
When you first pull onto FS RD 200 you will wind down past many easy to reach sites with 2wd. Small RVs should be fine as well. As you continue on, you will come across multiple splits in the road leading to more sites. If you are going when there is still a lot of snow melt (through late June) I would recommend 4x4 the further back you go.
I personally camped across from the Keystone Reservoir and it included a level site and a nice fire ring.

Very easy dispersed campsite on the river.
Such a tranquil setting, we had the whole place to ourselves. About 3 miles off the beaten path , through the T&A Ranch. We will return.

Quiet spot
Stopped here on my way through. Got here around 3pm only 2 other people. Only a few spots are larger for 5th wheels etc. road was pretty bumpy coming down, you pass a few farms and a lot of private property which can be confusing. Boat launch doesn’t allow camping, camping is right around the bend. Right next to the river and absolutely beautiful. NO OPEN FIRES. Close to houses, secluded but not entirely out in nature by yourself. Would definitely camp again! Easy to find, good Verizon cell reception. Quiet spot.

Not great for large rigs... but doable.
We have a 36 ft fifthwheel. The road has washboard and is quite steep in places. The biggest issue was finding a place to turn around. We did find a place to stay but most were already filled with hunting campers that had been brought up and left. I'm guessing hunting season starts next week and they have staked their claim. No sites are level so bring your legos. We work from our camper so cell service was important. T-mobile was dismal, but Verizon was usable with a solid 4G 2bars. The location is beautiful and remote. Lots of trees and the aspen are turning yellow. Probably won't come back again but plan to hike around and enjoy the area while we are here.

Forest Road 330-C - Medicine Bow Snowy Range
We found a great spot right next to the river on forest road 330C near North Fork Campground. The area was fairly busy on Labor Day weekend but we were basically isolated in this spot. One family was camping a little further up the road, but we had zero traffic on our road and the spot was beautiful. We were nestled up against the Little Laramie River which was awesome. We did explore the area a little and found numerous dispersed camping spots in/around the area but none as nice as the spot that we settled on. The exact coordinates are:

Nice dispersed campground
Nice isolated spot in the National Forest, 5 mi from the main highway. Nice view with few fire rings. No one was around.

Gorgeous spot of birch and bugs
A truly scenic spot where I saw that people were able to pull up an RV. I tent camped tucked into the forest a bit. The birch was dripping sap all night and I think I would have put my tent in the open if I had known. Some nice little fire pits. Don’t miss the turn into the camp circle, you’ll drive yourself up the mountain which is not very car friendly. Lastly there were swarms of mosquitoes who were out with vengeance, I managed to keep them at bay with few bites but don’t come Ill prepared to deal with skeeters

Pleasant spot next to farm
It was a nice area next to the river. Some tall grass but that wasn’t much a bother. I had no issues with mosquitoes. There are ground toilets, I do recommend packing in your own toilet paper because there was none while I was there. Several other people were camping nearby with no problems. It is next to a farm, which meant various wild and farm animal noises all night which kept me on my toes.
Video is of some of the noises going on throughout the night

very grown up with weeds
this was our second choice for a camp site, our 1st was the bridge upstream, and it was so grown up with weed there was no place to put a tent

Roadside Pullouts
AT&T 1-2 bars depending your location. Road in is about 5 miles, keeps going to few pullouts. Huge area for camping in groups if you continue down road make left. Use satellite view you’ll see what I’m talking about. 16 day limit. No water, garbage, restrooms, firewood everywhere no sure restrictions.

Small, but mighty
Great place to boondock for a few days. We stayed here for a week in our 20 foot skoolie. Short drive into the Medicine Bow National forest and you’re here. There are a couple of loops right as you enter, which are the most level places to park a rig. Then another path leads about a half a mile to a few other sites that are more secluded, but not very level. I wouldn’t recommend towing anything down there with the condition of the dirt road and low hanging tree branches. Those would be ideal for a camper van or tent. There is a lovely creek that runs along there. The dump/water is decommissioned at this site, but as you turn in there is dump/water at the forest station. During our stay there were a couple of RV’s and some off road fanatics. Quiet and cool summer evenings. Great cell service!

FIERCE skeeters
The mosquitoes here are something fierce but it’s a nice site other than that. There’s room for probably five vehicles and waterfront is pretty. Ground toilets. But wow, the mosquitoes make it unbearable.

Great free camping!
We stayed here for a night with our dog while passing through Wyoming. The area is BEAUTIFUL. Lots of wildlife and scenic views. Bathrooms were clean and conveniently scattered throughout the sites. Easy to find if you just follow the signs for camping! We made it back pretty far in our all wheel drive lower clearance Subaru. LOTS of mosquitoes though, so make sure to bring bug spray or cover up!
Alexandra T.GuideFoote Public Access Area Dispersed
Nice, secluded, & quiet
This place is down a long dirt ride through private property so be kind and mind the hours. When you get to the end, take the right fork and you’ll find two, rather close together, camping areas. When nobody is here it’s wonderful - right next to a creek, dogs can run around, and it is so very quiet and secluded. If I’m ever in Wyoming I’ll head back to this little spot.
There’s also a boat ramp, and I imagine if you fish, the creek would be a nice little spot to fish.

Primitive Camping on the N Platte River
Sanger Access Area is a launching/porting spot for Drift Fishing the North Platte River. There are several nice tent site right on the river with lots of Cottonwood trees for shade. There is a his/hers vaulted toilets but no other amenities. Not suitable for RVs or large trailers as the road in is narrow and can get nasty in bad weather. Great river location with prime fishing. The site is 4 miles in off HWY 130 on Picks Bridge Road.
