What a find! Roads not so great, can be quite sandy in spots so need 4WD to go all the way back (left fork). But beautiful red rock canyon, a short hike at the end of the cul-de-sac. Again, the sprinter van did fine, but no trailers. Hog Canyon signed on Highway 89.

We drove to the far end (~2 miles maybe?) to a large turnaround. Only ones there, amazing night sky.

I think it’s because I went in the winter but there was only one other car there that I saw. When the roads are muddy it would be very difficult to go up in a lower vehicle because it does require some off-roading. THE VIEWS ARE AMAZINGGGGG!!! It looks like the back country of Zion and sunset was awesome!

There’s construction at this turnout making it impassable. It appears this area is closed as of July 2022.

The parking area is just right off the main road and is pretty big so you don't really need to drive all the way to the trail kiosk. But If you do want to drive all the way in, I'd recommend AWD or 4x4 since it's sandy and there is a pretty steep hill right at the entrance. Probably won't want to get anything bigger than a van pass the main parking area.
At the kiosk, it's very quiet as you're nestled in a canyon. There are a few fire pits and the area could easily fit 5-6 vehicles comfortably.
Cell service is decent with both Verison and T-Mobile even with just one bar. With my WeBoost on I got a few bars on both networks and had not issues streaming videos or surfing websites.

We attempted to get into the dispersed camping area across the street from this entrance, but choose not to stay there. We stayed at this place - Hog Canyon parking area. It's a large area that's fairly flat. It's a parking/staging area for OHVs, but plenty of room for us as well as other campers. There were a number of OHVs that came and went while we were there but no one started too early in the morning or operated too late at night. We talked with a number of great people riding the trails. No antenna TV signal. This area is just minutes from Kanab. Great hiking on the Hog Canyon trail or across the street at the dispersed camping area.
I don't think you can get any kind of 5th wheel or travel trailer any further on the Hog Canyon trail, than this parking area.

Nice place to stay between Bryce and Zion. After following the map we discovered there’s a much better access off the highway between mile marker 78 and 79. Look for the stop sign.

WHY????
The lower section was roomy enough for any size rig and while a little rough in spots could handle 3-4 rigs easily.
No toilet or anything else...just a red gorgeous landscape to get off the highway for a bit.

The marked spot is along a series of OHV trails. Don’t even think about trying to get a trailer or motorhome in there. A van might be able to make it.

The marked spot is along a series of OHV trails. Don’t even think about trying to get a trailer or motorhome in there. A van might be able to make it. If you have a 4wd or adventure bike then go for it.
The consolation prize is a large dirt lot just off US-89. There are some spots with deep sand but if you’re just looking for somewhere to crash for the night and stay in the hard packed stuff you should be able to get just about anything in here.
Besides being right alongside US-89, the large lot is where OHV users unload their toys so expect noise.
My map shows the large lot as private rather than public land so camping may not be allowed even though there are no signs. The marked spot back along the trails is on public land as far as my map indicates.
The marked spot is in a sandstone alcove with the typical overhanging roof you find in these parts. There is a fire ring there but the ring and the area are littered with old beer cans and other trash.
Getting to the marked spot involves driving up a steep and narrow ramp after which the road is quite good until you make the turn onto the spur to the alcove. I’ve attached some pictures showing how rough and steep it is in places.
