Question about Nomad View Dispersed Camping

SueT asked on 2/15/2020

Is there anything that might serve as a windbreak for a tent? Sites near rocks? A lone tree?

If you turn left at the main fork, take the road until it turns hard right and dips down a bit. In that area, the right side of the cliff tips up and might be helpful in blocking a bit of the wind. Other than that, the area does not have much coverage.

No there isn’t, but when we were there people were tent camping without problems.

Sue there really are no sheltered areas that will give you a wind break. Winds are generally from the west and run up from the west side upslope to the top of the ridge and then curl over to the plains below.

No. This site is wide open. The first night we were there a couple arrived with a tent and tied it to their car which served as a bit of a wind break but I could hear their tent flapping later on and they left during the night. No rocks. No trees.

No windbreaks. I camped in a Springbar tent which can handle the wind pretty good.

No, there is nothing you could use here and it is extremely windy. After my experience in my camper, I would not reccomend using a tent here.

Nothing that I remember. Go to Campendium.com and look for Nomad View Dispersed. There is an aerial photo.

No, you are up on a ridge and it gets very windy during storms!

We had tent campers set up behind us, and then a car camper.
