Summary
It’s a rugged, remote desert experience near the Superstition Mountains, ideal for self-sufficient campers. There are no toilets, water, picnic tables, or hookups; campers must pack in/out everything. Some spots offer fire rings, but restrictions may apply. RVs can access some areas off FR 3512, though high clearance is recommended. The vibe is quiet and scenic, with stunning views of the Sonoran Desert and nearby Goldfield Ghost Town. Hiking trails and off-roading opportunities abound. Best visited from October to April for cooler temps and fewer crowds.

Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
