No Sleep

Lots of cops and sheriff making a racket outside at 2am. They stopped outside my truck and flashed their spotlights inside to see my disgruntled face. They waited in their cop cars for about another five minutes before leaving. It's like they were shocked to see someone camping in a truck cap. Area is also littered with broken bottles and trash.

Free camping close to Arches/Moab

Easy access. Many spots. Gas pipeline marked near road. You can hear road noise. 14 day camping limit. Large camping areas. Can't beat free.

Hard to maneuver and hard to find.

I pulled into the area thinking it opened up in the back and it doesn't. I had to do a 1000 point turn to get my truck turned around with a small river feet away. It doesn't look like anyone is maintaining the area. Wouldn't fit more than one rig from what I saw. The Walmart in Cedar City allows overnight camping. I would go there instead.
