Just off Interstate 15 at the Arizona-Utah border, Black Rock Road Dispersed sits on Arizona State Trust Land requiring a $15 annual permit for camping. The area functions as a large open lot with gravel roads leading to scattered camping spots, accommodating everything from tents to big rigs. A main graded road serves as mine haul access, bringing occasional gypsum trucks through the area.
The immediate vicinity near the highway ramp shows signs of heavy use, with litter and abandoned vehicles creating less appealing conditions. However, smaller two-track roads branch out toward more secluded spots, particularly along the route toward the gypsum mine about a mile past the main camping area. Stephen R. found it "quiet and low key" with tent camping options offering "more seclusion towards the back of the site."
Interstate noise carries across the area, though many campers report decent cell service for those needing connectivity. The location provides mountain views and dark skies for stargazing, with no artificial lighting. Campers seeking additional dispersed options can explore BLM Navajo Rd Dispersed across the state line.
Bring firewood and expect rough road conditions if venturing beyond the main area without four-wheel drive.
