Parking lot (not leveled everywhere) on I-70 westbound 1/2 mile prior to exit 227 Westwater.
Short steep trail leading to outlook with great view of open plains and mountains. Good AT&T signal.
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.
We had a very quiet night here. One of the toilets was clean and the other one wasn't.
Felt safe, and the noise is minimal as you're covered from the highway and there is not much traffic at night.
Trucks are idling at the end of the rest area, so if you stay a bit closer from the toilets, they won't bother you that much 😉
Nice spot, some trucks are coming in over night but keep their motors on.
Can't recommend the restrooms!
gorgeous view area, big trucks park here too so there is engine noise, great verizon LTE service
Report Check-InThis is actually Harley's Dome view area. A great spot for the night, hidden from the highway. Lots of space. Toilets available too. Semi trucks come and go in the night so earplugs are helpful. Walking up to the viewpoint is a great thing to do in the morning before heading out.
Report Check-InIt works for a quick overnight, but semis take over. I parked at the west end of the lot, in the car spots, no other cars there, two semis in the semi spots. Woke up at 2am with a semi in the car spots, 8 feet from my Jeep, idling all night with lights on.
Report Check-Instopped here after the BLM land to the west was too muddy/bad roads/close spots full
no problems, lots of semis
this isn't a usual rest area, this is Harley's Dome View Area with limited parking, only 8-9 spots for RV/trucks and a dozen for cars
Report Check-InWide views at the top of the short hike! Great cellular service

If you’re hungry for Mexican good stop at Mi Ranchito in Fruita(26miles before here) before arriving here since this exit is only Westbound.
