I'm sorry, I have to be the voice of reason here y'all. Or at least the realistic one.
If you are sleeping in your car, camper, van, etc, then this could totally work for you.
If you are camping alone, using a tent, looking for enough space to camp (cook, sleep, etc), this is most likely not for you.
The road itself is fine.
As a young woman traveling alone in a Subaru Outback, sleeping in a tent, this was such a huge hell no for me.
Some of the pullouts have graffiti with extremely offensive language and a crapload of shotgun shells. I could tell local people use the space as a party ground quite often. I know this all sounds like I have a stick up my butt, but I'm not some conservative person. I am all for foul language and partying in the mountains. This wasn't that. This was sketchy. Maybe that's just because I am traveling alone.
A few years back I traveled in a converted Toyota Sequoia with a sleeping dock in the back with my partner and this spot would be good for a situation like that, but not my current situation.
I do not think there's really any reasonable place up there to set up a tent between the exposure, wind, noise, space, and threat of danger.
The overlook spot is awesome... its also only about 10 feet of sand on the side of the dirt road with steep drops on all sides. Might be cool for a small van or if you are sleeping in your car. You will still be dealing with noise all night. I saw people going up the road all through the late evening and coming back down.
