Summary
It’s free, first-come, first-served, and no permits are required. There are no toilets, water, fire rings/grills, picnic tables, or RV hookups, so campers must be fully self-sufficient. Tucked in a lightly forested high desert landscape, this quiet spot provides a rugged, off-grid experience with wide-open skies and mountain views. It’s close to hiking trails and off-road routes, making it ideal for solitude-seekers and adventurers. Best visited in spring or fall to avoid extreme heat or snow. Always check fire restrictions and practice Leave No Trace principles.
