Something not right?

Description

Dispersed camping. On Forest Service Road 703 B. Multiple ring fires and pullouts up the road, with quite a nice view of the Wyoming plains. Good Verizon reception up there (3/4 bar). I saw a few other rigs on the way up, the road is not bad if you take it slow: it’s wide and not by any kind of cliff.

Unfortunately it can get quite windy. I would recommend it only to RVs and campers, a tent would be a more miserable experience.

Beautiful area, plenty of spots along the road. I didn’t stay at the exact coordinates but there is no shortage of spots to camp. It rained here recently and the mosquitos are absolutely horrible. Woke up this morning and there were hundreds swarming around my van at 8am. I stepped out to check the temperature and three got inside from just opening the door. Nice place for a beautiful nights stay but until this place dries up I wouldn’t recommend tent camping here or staying here for an extended amount of time seeing unless you have some serious deet

Great spot with nice views and lots of wildflowers.

As described, this place is amazing!!! The road up is gravel with a few rocky places but our 32’ class C with trailer got up without a scratch. There are dozens of off-shoot roads and pull off potential in every direction. The cell service was great and the wild flowers were everywhere. Please enjoy this gift from God and leave it better than you found it.

Scooted up here to beat the heatwave. It was so pleasant I stayed three nights. Very private and excellent cell service. Wildflowers are still pretty with lots of yellow and red buckwheat, flax and others. A definite stay when passing this way again!

Really beautiful spot overlooking the rolling hills. Wildflowers everywhere. Lightning fast Verizon service! Can get windy but its not that bad. I'll be staying here for a week or so.

Cool campsites with interesting rock formations and views of the surrounding forest. The road to dispersed sites can be bumpy but was totally manageable in our 2wd van.

As described. This is a hilltop with several dispersed campsites. There were people staying at the other sites, but none of us was visible to each other. Beautiful view. The wind was very peaceful for me in my van, but agree it might be too much for a tent. Very fast Google fi service, solid Verizon service. Nearby are some nice biking/hiking trails. stayed two nights and wanted to stay longer.

Such a beautiful place. This particular spot that the coordinates took me to was full so I ventured off further and don’t regret it one bit. Would highly recommend it actually. There was a fire pit and a beautiful sunset/sunrise.
Gets a little windy but totally worth it and not bothersome.

It’s all gravel and easy for a van 2wd, car, truck and maybe smaller bus or RV.

Perfect cell connection Verizon (4 bars) and T-Mobile (2-3 bars)

This area has some great dispersed campsites. I camped off of Road 703, But there are sites along some of the side roads too. There is fantastic cell service with Verizon. Only downside is it can get pretty windy here, it’s pretty exposed.

good spot, tons of spaces, I would say it's big rig friendly if you take it slow, we are in a 40 for skoolie
