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.
Large gravel pit. Nothing special but it's quiet and close to Talkeetna. On the east side of the road. Turn left past the boulders, up the small hill and you're there. Evidence of moose present.
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
Stayed for a few nights in small camping trailer. It was great for the quietness, cleanliness, and minimal mosquitos. Some locals do occasionally use the far side of the pit as a shooting range, and the one that we did meet was courteous and asked us before they started shooting. Got busy on our last night as a few rigs decided to spend the night. No view as others stated.
Report Check-InGreat spot near town. Just a seven minute drive from the Talkeetna town center. We were alone besides a truck bed tent camper. One of the quietest spots we’ve ever found. Not scenic, but not as ugly as a Walmart parking lot. Not a soul around. We woke up at 6 to find parking and walk around the town center. I’d stay here again.
Report Check-InGreat overnight place close to Talkeetna, easily could have space for several rigs. We were all alone up the hill couple of vehicles down the hill right at the road.

Report Check-InAs described, just an update that it's still usable.
Larger rigs ok.
Good Verizon.
Some traffic noise from road and floatplanes taking off and landing on Christiansen lake, but quiet at night.
Had a fox visit.
Fairly level, easy access.
A couple of other guests in the two nights we stayed, but plenty of room for several.
Just as described before. Nice and remote without much noise and without much of a view.
