Many people enjoy the solitude and primitive experience of camping away from developed campgrounds and other campers. Dispersed camping is the term used for camping anywhere in the National Forest OUTSIDE of a developed campground. Dispersed camping is free, therefore no services or facilities are provided; such as trash removal, tables, and fire pits. In some popular dispersed camping areas, camping is limited to designated sites only.
Some visitors stay in a primitive style by setting up camp outside of any designated campsite area, sometimes referred to as “boondocking”. It is a great way to connect with nature and enjoy parts of Bryce Canyon Country that not many people see. Plus, it’s free camping.
**Dispersed camping is not permitted in all areas.** If you’re going to set up a primitive camp in this way, please be sure to adhere to the following guidelines:
Only camp on public land
Keep your campsite minimal so as not to disturb the natural environment
Remove any waste you produce, and Leave No Trace
Be respectful of other visitors and wildlife in the area
Keep track of your location so as not to get lost, and stay away from potentially dangerous areas.
There is no spring. But there are a lot of cows and coyotes and a lot of open space so you can have your privacy.
Very cool bubbling spring . cold an very tasty an refreshing. Worth the 24 miles round trip or drive through to the Highway. Road is a good gravel road.
Fresh water spring on Tom's Best Spring Rd near Bryce Canyon National Forest, Utah. Spring is enclosed in a little hut structure. A truck can drive down to the gate and back in fairly easily.
Best camping ever.
Choose your own site/location, plenty of room for everyone to have their own private area, amazing views, close to Bryce And it’s free!
Be very careful the routes Google maps give you. If it takes you by the airport TURN AROUND!! That road turns into a side by side trail. Tore up the 5th wheel. Found the good road after repairs and was worth it. Way to many people in the summer though. Privacy is not to be found. Beautiful senic area, the wild flowers were wonderful.
