Great boondocking site! Pulled in for the night (early April) and had the place to ourselves. Washboard for about 3 miles, but not too bad. Nice sites with fairly new picnic tables and sun shelters. Outhouses very clean. Lots of mtb/ATV trails. So quiet and peaceful with lovely views. Well done, BLM!

Excellent dry camping location. This site has four shaded picnic tables, fire rings and a pit toilet. It is one of the trailheads for the Silver State Trail. Easy access for any size rig. The entire area is gravel.
To access the site, turn off Route 93 onto North Pole Line Road. You will see the powerlines from a good distance away while still on 93 and there is a small utility building on the corner. The GPS coordinates for the turnoff are 37.620956, -114.783613.
Drive on N Poleline road about three miles. This is a very good quality dirt road so don’t let that distance discourage you. Turn right towards the campsite at GPS 37.664078, -114.761649. You will be able to see the shade structures in the distance while still on Pole Line Road.
During our visit on July 3rd we were the only ones there. There was no OHV traffic (other than us) and only a couple of vehicles passed on Pole Line Road. Super quiet since you’re far from Route 93.
Good AT&T data coverage.
