No CG host so bathrooms are sometimes in need of attention. Super dusty after a long dry summer. But the views are great.
Before you come here understand some basics : this is a stunning otherworldly dessert ecosystem - don't be a slob, don't be lazy, stay on trails and just be a decent human. Remember that while some people appreciate your tunes most people really appreciate the stillness of the dessert at night so respect the quiet hours - turn it down, kill the generator, etc. Remember that the weather can and will change despite the forecast, so be ready for anything. Bring more water than you think you need. Read that last line again. Bring toilet paper because the amenities are sparse. All the spots are wonderful, some of the loops are perfect for groups. Bring more water than you think you'll need.
Ok spot to camp and mtb. BLM campground is only $10 site. Cell service was very good on Verizon. However this campground is best suited for van and roof tent setups, As there seem to be no designated flat pads for ground tents. Also the sites are mostly too small for travel trailers and most sites are not level, tilted in weird ways, so better bring lots of leveling blocks! No water and no trash dumpsters. Many sites are covered in Russian thistle and look unkept and unused. Three stars due to poor quality sites. There was a cg host onsite Sept 2019. The N desert mtb trails all seem to start at the cg and end downhill at the lower free trailhead facility.
Great MTB trails very clean and accessible!
a great place for camping. lots of space, close to the city, so no worries about shopping. you can see a nice sunrise there, a lot of bicycle routes in the area. I recommend
