Lots of space!

This side of the BLM land is just south of the two when you enter the dispersed area. There are TONS of spaces to camp, so many that when we were looking we eventually stopped and turned around because they just kept going! We have stayed in this area the last 2 nights and we have not seen more than 4-5 other groups camping at one time. There are a decent amount of trees that provide shade/wind breaks and plenty of fire pits to find a spot for you. Internet connection is pretty good for Verizon.

Good!

We didn’t end up staying here but scoped it out looking for a spot. It looked great, a positive is that there’s porta potties and plenty of space for many campers. Negatives were that it was higher ground so it was fairly windy for fires and that it was really close to the road. Collectively it looked good, we just decided to go somewhere else.

Chilly (Which we loved)

This dispersed site was really nice! Most sites have man made fire pits made out of rock, so it makes it easy to spot each area. It’s fairly rocky/shale like which wasn’t our favorite since we were tenting. Because it’s bedrock, our tent stakes didnt go more than an inch or two into the ground. It wasn’t windy enough to matter, and there’s plenty of rocks around to hold down the corners, but it’s something to consider! Fires were allowed and the man made pits held up well, and most have larger rock to block the wind! Sunrise/sunset was nice, only negative is that there’s some bigger hills/mountains around you so you see the sun a little late. Still pretty tho:) no bathrooms here or outhouse of any kind. No electrical BUT Verizon works GREAT so that was a plus! Main road is close so you can hear semis but they get less and less as the night goes on. We stayed one night Sat-Sun and there was plenty of spaces open. Maybe only 2-3 other campers in our area, more on the south side of the road but still plenty for many more!
