“Great Overnight off I15”

This is just a decent dirt area to park your trailer while traveling up or down I15.
It’s a steep road into it, and the area is dirt with some ruts.

Huge flat area above the two valleys. Some wind. Few campers and really cool paragliding.

Found this place from this campendium site randomly when we were driving from Zion up to Yellowstone and we really needed a place for the night.

Found this place from this campendium site randomly when we were driving from Zion up to Yellowstone and we really needed a place for the night. Couldn’t find any BLM or campgrounds and were so glad to have found it. Very quiet and seemingly safe place to sleep for the night. There are “vault” toilets but they didn’t have toilet paper which is fine. They were pretty dirty, but again we only needed a place to park and sleep for some hours so we didn’t mind. You also wake up to people hang gliding! So that’s a plus. Appreciate this site!

We needed a place to stop driving from Nevada to Montana. Great spot for an overnight (even a few days). There were other campers, everyone was friendly and respectful. A little trash but not bad. Really cool to wake up in the morning to 20+ paragliders jumping off the hill!

After searching for a while, this seems like the best option for boondocking in the salt lake area. It has a cool view of the mountains, and it’s easy to get to.
ALSO it has nice and FREE WiFi. Boom.
But... It’s also pretty crowded, noisy, littered, and very windy. Wouldn’t stay again.

This spot all and all was great for us! It was free, had bathrooms, and when we woke up in the morning there were paraglider’s jumping off the side of the mountain. Quite entertaining!

Gets a little crowded on the weekends, but still a quiet and peaceful place to overnight.

We hadn't planned to come here but the place we wanted was full up.
Getting to the spot is pretty easy and straightforward. Once you get to the dirt road, it's a little bit wonky. Some big pot holes to avoid, some kinda sketchy spots but I wouldn't say it was a very difficult place to access.
There's people doing wind gliding and all of sorts of other things I don't know the names of. Not really a ton of people here past 3pmish. It's quiet aside from the noise from all the wind. Very windy up here.
There's a pretty decent amount of space here. There's a few trailers and there's another motorhome a little ways down the path from us. Enough room to feel like you have space but it's anything but secluded. You can see houses on the hill right next door.
I think it's worth coming here just to see the view from the top. It's really beautiful, even with civilization in view.
I wouldn't come here again, but I'm grateful that this place was here. Only reason I wouldn't come back is there's a walmart that is much easier to access not far from here which would have been just as good of an overnight as this was. We stayed an extra day to figure out a plan on where to go next.
