Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Afton Road turns into a dirt road and becomes BLM land after the powerline. There were a couple of graded dirt road starts that go nowhere on the right side of the road. It is far enough from Hwy 15, so super quiet, and super dark. Perfect for boondocking in a van, camper, or roof top tent. can be very windy in spring time , see photo.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Latest Check-Ins
had to pull off of I-15 late and this was a great spot. stopped after dark and was a little hard to find the rockier side roads but definitely navigable. great sunrise
Report Check-Inland along afton road to the powerline is private but vacant, camping is acceptable in the "water relief" or pullouts along the road, and on the roadside. Note a couple that look like pull out areas are actual roads, do not block roads. BLM land starts after Second Afton Canyon sign but camping is ok in the private lands area as long as you are clean and respectful. respect private property signs, pack out trash, and Enjoy. Safe Area with a lot of 4x4 and dirt bike people riding around. good cell service. Stay as close to road as possible, pullouts get steep and soft quickly. OK to park along Afton road in wider areas just past powerline. good flat areas there too.
Report Check-InUsed a spur road off of Afton Road. The spot at the coordinates had a bunch of stuff pulled up in it so it could not be used. Some of the spur roads seemed too loose for our 2WD Promaster, but found one that worked fine.
Report Check-Inpulled in around midnight so didn’t know what to expect. found a flat spot for our 2wd van easily. very quiet and stars were great. looked semi sketchy driving out in the morning but felt safe overnight. will def camp again
Report Check-InQuiet spot right off the highway. Good cell service. Stopped at the very beginning of the road turnoff and had no problems. The pulloff road is pretty pothole filled, but the road to get here isn't bad in 2wd
Report Check-InStayed 2 quiet nights here without an issue.
The spot at this location is not exactly level but not terrible.
