Summary
It's free, no reservations or permits required, and has no amenities: no toilets (bring a wag bag), no water, no picnic tables, no fire rings, and no RV hookups (high-clearance vehicles recommended). Perched on a desert mesa, the area is popular with BASE jumpers for its dramatic cliffs and views of Mineral Canyon. The vibe is remote, open, and adventurous with sweeping desert scenery. Closest attractions include Canyonlands National Park and Dead Horse Point. Best visited in spring or fall when temperatures are milder. Pack out all waste; Leave No Trace is essential.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
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.
