Black Canyon BLM

Just minutes from the entrance to Black Canyon of the Gunnison Natl Park, this BLM spot is right off a hairpin turn. Take care pulling in here and give the area a scout first. We witnessed a dozen RV's and even ORV's suffering damage due to careless driving. Not much flat ground, but we lucked out with a great site surrounded by juniper and pine. No facilities at all. ATT mobile service was not very good.

This is the closest spot to the park you can stay, less then 5 minutes. Only has a few flat areas right off the road to park a RV. Lots of spots for smaller vehicles, specially if you have 4x4, the roads wiggle through there for miles. Pretty sketchy taking a RV past the main turn in area which fills in pretty close together at night. Clean and pretty views if you can find a level spot to fit your rig. Cell service works.

solo female in a minivan, I felt safe and cozy here. There are many sites, I counted around 10, that are close to the entrance and are accessible with a minivan. Beyond some point you will need higher clearance.
My site is totally secluded, which I love, a short distance to the road, which I don't mind since traffic is not too busy during the week. But I get to be surrounded by trees that provide lots of shade during the hottest days of this crazy heat wave the whole country is experiencing. And I can still charge my solar.
Couldn't be happier! Oh well, yes, when deer walk next to my site ignoring my presence... communing with Nature feels good.

This is a great spot for anyone planning to explore Black Cyn of the Gunnison NP. We arrived in the evening and had no problem finding a private spot. The road is pretty rough, so a vehicle with clearance is necessary to access the spots further from the road. Worth it for how close this spot is to the park entrance (only about 10 min). Overall great location with great views!

We have 25 ft motorhome pulling 10 ft trailer. The road in was quite rocky. We walked the area closest to the entrance - it had very large ruts that would need to be avoided at all costs. Were able to park on dirt road and pull off enough to be out of main passage area. Really needed to level RV. However, it is nice and quiet here and only a short ride to the national park. There is also good cell service, which we think important in planning upcoming adventures! There are not many places where we would have felt comfortable driving the RV. Many places however for tents and camper vans, and if you have high clearance, possibilities seem endless
