Decent road and plenty of places to camp however the road and topography looked much better in the camping area just north of here as you continue towards Havasu City. This is a popular ohv riding area so there is alot of traffic passing in and out and very dusty. Great views of the lake and mountains if you cross the highway and explore the blm land on that side.

Amazing, free campground just next to the road. It is not so far from the road, so you hear the passing cars quite load still. In the morning, I woke up from the sounds of the dirt bikes. Apparently it is a popular spot to go drive with dirt bikes. Quite some trash at the campground unfortunately. Apart from those things, great to spend a night!

Right off the main road and next to what smells like a refinery. ATVers heaven as well as Army vehicles doing maneuvers. Road is a bit rough if u want to go back a bit. Cant complain that its free nut only good for a place to sleep for us. More comfortable camping areas just north

We needed somewhere to park for a while to wait for stores to open and let the dogs run around. This looks like a great dry camping area that you can ride at! Bring your toys! We just had our boat with us this time so we just hiked around a bit with the dogs, but it's beautiful! I'm sure driving farther away from the road is even better too. I'm sure we will be back to camp here one day.

Sharp rocks large edge of the road to Conquer in and out. Traffic 65mph way too many trucks, all pulling the air horn because it required stopping to make a right hand turn to get in. Not safe, at all let the dirt track. ATV have it.
