Wow! This is a great, somewhat lesser known dispersed camping area on a canyon rim on BLM land, overlooking Canyonlands National Park. Given that, if you visit this spot, please treat it with respect and minimize your impact, so that it remains open. Phenomenal views of the canyon to the south, and while the road requires four-wheel drive, it is accessible by vehicles with lower clearance like a AWD wagon, or a 4x4 Sprinter van. We managed to get here in our 2021 Winnebago Revel with some amount of care. There are multiple campsites along the rim with primitive stone fire rings, all offering great views. Enough room for a few overland vehicles per site. Privacy is moderate. While this is not the most popular rim, it is still known by many, so expect to have neighbors during the busier seasons. Cell service is weak, but great view of the sky for Starlink. Recommended. We'll probably prefer this site for future visits to the Moab area.

This is a nice, secluded, spacious, primitive campsite, deep in Moab's backcountry, that is likely often overlooked. While it very obviously gets decent use, as the stone fire ring looked recently used during my visit, I would expect this spot to be available most of the time. There is a spectacular sandstone mound due north, and cell service is poor, but some text messages managed to squeak through. Should be a decent view of the sky for Starlink, if needed. It isn't far from a canyon rim, and is a bit exposed to weather coming in from the west, so best to stay here in fair conditions. It does require four-wheel drive to access, but almost any vehicle should be able to access with very few obstacles on the short BLM track. I believe our Winnebago Revel could get here, no problem. Spacious enough for three to five vehicles, so it is a great group camping spot. It would be fun to explore this area on foot. This spot is recommended if you are looking for a hidden campsite in an otherwise popular area for dispersed camping. I found a bottle of irish whiskey here. I tried it.
