Very remote, very rough road, high clearance vehicle required. Should contact park hq check on status of road before traveling to Glenn Springs. Ran into a couple places where road was washout, wished had check before going. Interesting place.
I stayed in Glenn Springs 2, which is far enough away from GS1 that you most likely won't know if anyone is there or not.
GS2 is a decent campsite. The parking/camping area is large and well marked with railroad ties and rocks, and fairly level if you're setting up a trailer. There are nice views all around, and there are some decent ridges and fingers close by for exploring.
The campsite is just off the road though, and during my last visit vehicles were screaming by at all hours (even at 2 AM). Expect looky-loo's and people hollering at you as they drive by.
Really enjoyed exploring this area. The
geology is much different over here. Boquillas canyon was limestone whereas this area was red sandstone. The blue cacti really popped in this area and pictures don’t do justice.
