Off grid. No services. 10 minutes Northing of Divide. Ended up here as ALL other locations w in 50 miles were absolutely packed. Little gem. All entry descriptions on here were perfect. 1st green gate got us to boondocks site about 1/2 mile back. Gets tougher from there. To right for our rig. 27’ Fiver and crew cab long bed truck F-350. Lots of hikers w dogs during day. Be warned. All downed logs are gone. Went 5 miles back all directions and used the last easily available. There is another gate further in. Couple miles. This is entry step off to some good country.

not really many good camping spots unless you drive through both gates. mostly people walking their dogs but everyone seemed nice.

This is the best place I've stayed in 6 months. Got about 2 feet of snow which melted within the week. lots of deer passing by. roads easily navigated without 4wd. I turned left at the second gate before going through it and parked right before it drops into the meadows. very few hikers but not a single vehicle in a week. lots of privacy.

Same as others said - just need to open and close the gate. I drove to the second set of double gates and didn’t see anyone other than some hikers. If you are just looking for a place to rest and overnight there is a turnabout right at the entrance - otherwise you have about a mile of dirt road till the second gates and the open prairie land begins. 1 bar Verizon LTE

Stayed in the area for 3 nights. Absolutely quiet outside of seeing some people walking dogs or hiking during the day. Only one other night did I see other campers. Worth it.

Good dirt road. Pass the gate. Lot of places. No amenities. Free. Quiet. With the cows. Very good.

The green gate was closed but not locked! Just open it, drive thru, and close behind you. This is a great spot during summer but it was snow packed in winter (see pics) - not safe for RVs/trailers during snow season.

nice place, you have to pass through the green Gate to enter in the NF, then you can choose a place. A lot of people went to take a walk with their dogs.

Report Check-In

When we arrived midday the green gates were closed. It did appear folks had parked outside and hiked in to camp.
