Hey all, info in the title says it all. I'm just wondering if anybody can point me to some BLM dispersed camping as close as possible to the Monument. The actual campground in the Monument, unsurprisingly, is booked solid for many, many weekends to come. Thanks for your help!

Rabbit Valley exit on I70 just before Utah or 18 Road outside of Fruita.

Unaweep (Hwy 141) is great if you also want some bouldering right at your camp & some scenery. Rabbit Valley exit is prolly closer though?

Definitely Rabbit Valley.  The north desert is a haul.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
