Burch Canyon Road Dispersed Camping

We could not get into Natural Bridges Campground which is small and first come first serve. So, Ranger suggested the abandoned airstrip, but on the way came along this gravel road that led to many pull outs that were worn and meant for camping. You are surrounded by red rock, or you have a perch with a beautiful view. Mostly easy in, easy out. Gravel, packed dirt. Depending upon the size of your rig, you’ll have to choose as per usual. Smaller rigs, obviously have more options. Would stay there agin, and maybe even IF there were room at the campground! It’s free. You and I own it.

The road goes for ages, so as long as you have gas, you will find a spot. The ground is a combo of rocks, cacti, sand, and other plants. We tent camped which took us a little bit to find a nice, flat surface but there are so many pull-offs for tents, cars, and RVs. The further you go down the road the more off-road it gets but we ended up driving a Subaru Forester 10 miles down (by choice), no problem. Would recommend for the views any day! Free, no amenities, but great views.
