“Boondocking at its finest!”
Nightly Rate: $0 USD
I was very worried coming here, concerned that we wouldn't find a spot, and that we couldn't get pass the wash. We have a 33' motorhome with a car we tow behind. As soon as we turned off the main road...

Not too far from the campground is the Sandstone Bluff, which was...

- WeRVwithDogs We tried to drive to the top of Mt Taylor, (about a half hour drive to the base) but we made it to about 9500 feet before the accumulated snow stopped us. We hiked El Calderon, which was a very pretty hike. Lots of pine trees - I wouldn't say the cone is spectacular, but a pretty 3 mile hike. Not too far from the campground is the Sandstone Bluff, which was fun exploring all the different views as the sun set.

“Small BLM campground in a beautiful setting”
Nightly Rate: $0 USD
Note: older reviews reference an overflow area right before the entrance to the campground. That area was blocked off when I arrived there. I travelled here with a 35 5th wheel, long bed pickup and...
