Latest Check-Ins
Penitente Canyon campground and trailhead. Lovely sheltered sites among rock formations.
Report Check-InDidn't camp but came for a hike. Beautiful place to spend an afternoon or a few days. Campsites look good.
Report Check-InI've camped there twice in a 22ft travel trailer, Aug '19 and '21. Spotty T-mobile cell signal but most the time I got 1 bar of 4g, but texting was always good. Forget about streaming, but occasional internet and email if you have one of the higher spots or climb up a bit along the trails with your phone. No water despite what the official NFS page says. Clean restrooms. Watch out for rattlesnakes. Never saw one but I know folks who have. Nice hiking trails and rock climbing.
