About this place
The camping here is above 9,000 feet, shaded by aspen. Nothing is marked out.
There is a vault restroom and an information kiosk. The roads and camp spurs are graveled, so you will not be driving through mud to find a spot.
Cold Springs reservoir sits at the west end of the camping, on FR031, and the fishing there can be very good. If it is not, there is Twin Ponds, Farnsworth and Salina Reservoir.
The marked routes take ATVs up to 50 inches wide. There is walking, and wildlife if you sit still.
Take everything home that you brought. You can stay 16 days.

The roads around this place are not maintained for a regular car. That comes from the US Forest Service, who grade every road by the kind of vehicle it is looked after for. Those records cover the roads nearby. They do not cover the last stretch in to the campsite, and nobody has checked that part. Treat this as a warning. We are not promising what you will find when you get there. If you have driven it, tell us what it was like and we will say so here.

Every distance on this page is the driving distance. A short distance can still take a long time. The road may be closed for the season, covered in snow, or washed out. Many of these roads are dirt. Plan your route before you leave home. Out here there is often no phone signal to look it up on the way.
Nearest town and supplies
- Salina, UT Directions
Salina is big enough that you’d normally expect fuel and somewhere to buy food. Nobody from here has been to check, so don’t count on it if you’re running low.

Add road notes for this site
The thing we cannot get from any government record is what the drive in is actually like. If you have done it, this is the most useful thing you can leave behind. We read everything before it appears, and we print a first name with it if you give one.
Thank you. A person will read it before it goes on the page.
Where this information comes from
