Description
Primitive camping is allowed in the refuge at designated sites with numbers. Free, no registration required. Refer to maps at kiosks for locations of campsites. On the Arivaca/Sasabe Road. About half way between the 286 junction and Arivaca. We stayed right off the road in a nice, level spot. But the well graded sit road runs north and south and has a zillion pull-offs along the way. Very easy camping for everyone from big rigs to tents. We tried to camp at Arivaca Lake but the last 3 miles of the road was terrible. Rutted and washed out. We couldn’t find the lake. Took a wrong turn. Decided to forget the whole thing and drove the 20 min. to this spot. 3bars ATT 4G
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
90 some sites on various forest roads. Decent access. This place is huge and the provided map is not very good. Can only stay is designated sites. I never saw another vehicle. Verizon signal good at #17
Report Check-InSite number 87. Just adding that there is a strong LTE cell signal here. Very nice this time of year.
