Henry Lake BLM | Wild Camping

November 26th, 2022 by Chris Maienza

Road in was either plowed or super well packed. Packed snow on road; was totally fine with my Nissan NV (RWD) with chains. Plenty of space to spread out, a good few people ice fishing; only a few stayed the night. Deep snow off the road. I couldn't find anywhere else to camp, so this was a pleasant surprise.

Beautiful lake side campsite suitable for vans, trailers, 5th wheels, and Class A.

beautiful spot right by the water with lots of wild flowers this time of year. not the best lake for swimming be wary of leeches! #leechfest2022

Last mile is a dirt road that (in parts) is rutted, potholed, and washboarded. Took it slow with my Travato. Front of the spot near the fence is perfectly level. Beautiful location very close to the lake with mountains as a backdrop. Lots of waterfowl and no bugs this time of year. Very quiet, peaceful, and clean - please keep it that way! Saw lots of boondocking rigs along the road to this location.

Found a spot by the lake. A lot RV’s and trailers already good thing we a got a spot away from others. So quite and slept good. Good view of lake with sunset and sunrise.

this spot was awesome! beautiful views of the lake. I went further down the road there are several pull outs to camp with more privacy. awesome service I had 3 bars on my comcast phone & Verizon phone at pretty much all the spots. unfortunately the lake currently has toxic algae and is not safe to swim in - not for dogs either! i called the ranger to verify this. there's a vault toilet where the gps is tagged. lots of gnats like other people have mentioned. overall an excellent spot.

Tons is space and hiking trails just up the road. Not always quiet because of the atvs.

Very beautiful. Found a spot here but didn’t end up staying due to how windy it was and the fact that we forgot stakes. Will have to return another time to enjoy the views. Plenty of other open areas along the road to set up camp.

Lovely site off Henry’s Lake will fit small trailer. Fishing is good with launch area for kayaks or inflatable boat for day users. Insects can be intense by midday, but early starts and late afternoon great.

you're parked next to RVs on a lakefront, but it sure is nice. no tree cover, but the lake makes up for it. lots of nats, but in four days...not one mosquito bite.

Solid free spot. I would say it could comfortably fit about 6-12 rigs depending on size Not a huge site. Lake is clean and the views are solid. Solid Verizon service!

One negative thing was the bugs. wowza! Super gnatty even with a bug net...because of that not sure we would stay again.

Beautiful views from this lake site. We ran into some wind loaded snow patches on the road in May. But overall good a bit bumpy roads. Windy but scenery is awesome.
The Google Map location leads to a first sight, but further East and West are more sites with fire rings.

This is a beautiful site overlooking Herny Lake. The road in is Gravel and 2 miles from a paved road. There are 6-15 campsites at this location and the maximum RV length is 45 feet. You may stay 14 days at Henry Lake BLM. There are no facilities whatsoever.
