Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Lovely spot next to two juniper trees.
Couldn’t find a level spot for our car, so I’m sure a tent would have been equally challenging.
Took Soda Lake Road in from 166, then turned onto Quail Lake Road. Had to explore unmarked dirt roads from there before finding a spot to stop off the road.
Did see bullet casings on site and heard a few shots before evening, but otherwise clean and silent.
Gorgeous sunset with spots of color in different parts of the sky at different moments, then a ton of stars popped out. Sunrise next morning was a lovely golden amongst the prairie grass.
Saw scat and hoof prints near site but no animals except a lone hawk during evening and bats at night.
Horse flies and bees were buzzing after sun up, so I recommend cooking breakfast as early as you can.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Secluded! Not level, but the trade off is that the trees and hills block some of the wind. I was out here for a week and didn’t see any humans (just lots of flies).
