Description

MODERATOR NOTE: 14 day limit for camping applies

A great spot in the Sonora Desert National Monument Park. Take exit 144 on Interstate 8 and drive south. After a few km there is a sign that you are entering the Saguaro Nat. Monument. Drive as far as you want (good gravel road) and pick a spot you like. No infrastructure, very quiet, free. đź‘Ť

Tons of places to camp out here. Very desolate. Amazing stars. Only a couple of others camping nearby. We found a creepy note about a person who was begging for help in a fire ring. We left and camped closer towards the national monument entrance

Good spot! Small primitive fire rock ring and lots of flat ground. Many other spots full on the road in. Can’t comment on the stars as we had a cloudy night with a little rain.

Report Check-In

It was a quiet night. We got a bit spooked because it tried to rain a little but it didn’t amount to much. Very peaceful, saw other campers when we were driving in but couldn’t see anyone from this spot.

Co ordinates just slightly off. This takes you down a road with no areas to park. Maybe there are spots further down, but turning my rig around was a concern where this took me.

Report Check-In

The road in isn’t terrible. As mentioned pick any spot you like. 2 bars LTE on Verizon.

Nice, quiet, secluded spot. Bumpy dirt road on the way in. Dispersed camping. Stayed in RTT

Report Check-In

Plenty of spots along the dirt road. Be nice to the flora/fauna and pick up your trash. We found a lizard in an old beer can.

Beautiful desert spot in the Sonora. Far enough from highway, perfect for a quiet night or two. Not sure if so nice in summer as it might be hot, but now at the end of January it is simply đź‘Ť.

Easy to get to with any vehicle. Nice and quiet, pretty desert spot. I would say this is a good spot for winter/spring camping but would avoid in the summer.
