Arrived at 7pm on a Saturday evening about an hour before sunset. 1 other van camped here. A few minutes later a couple off road vehicle riders came. There is a ton of space you could probably have 10 class B vans here and nobody would be in anyone’s way. There is several acres of open land. Lots of stone fire pits. But tends to get very windy so I’m not sure how well a fire would work. It is all hard rock so would be hard to stake a tent down. No railings so be careful near the cliff edge. If there is recent rain or rain in the forecast I would avoid as the road coming in is all dirt. Sunsets are incredible and you can see for miles and miles. I also recommend bring binoculars. You can clearly see monument valley from here. Dont bring pets. There are a lot of cracks and cliffs and they could fall right over the edge chasing a lizard around.

Spectacular views, just a difficult, windy road to get there. Just don’t arrive when it’s dark and you’re fine

We love to find places like this- well off the beaten path with amazing views.

My friend and I left Dixie National Forest to Hwy 89. Take 89 south to to 12. There is an excellent National Forest campground a few miles west of Bryce on 12. There is a canyon there where Butch and Sundance used to hang out - we can walk into it from the campground.
We then continue on 12 through Escalante UT to Boulder UT, which is where we head east on the Burr Trail. This cuts across the southern end of Capital Reef Nat. Park. There is some incredible BLM land such as Muley Point where we camped at large. Views of at least 50 miles in all directions - with no sign of civilization.
I would not recommend the Burr Trail for anyone without 4WD and certainly no more than a short trailer. Some steep and narrow parts to navigate. Muley Point is basically on rock so pretty bouncy until you find the most perfect spot on earth to camp!

There are two ways to get here by ground: either come down 261 which is paved or from Mexican Hat and up the unpaved Moki Dugway. We came up the MD.

There are two ways to get here by ground: either come down 261 which is paved or from Mexican Hat and up the unpaved Moki Dugway. We came up the MD. I would not recommend towing up the unpaved, very steep Dugway unless you've got a strong pulling truck and a very short camper at most. Truck camper was fine with a couple of rock overhangs avoided. The end of Muley Pt. is extraordinary for camping. If the end point is too windy or oddly full of campers, there are many spots along the way with turnoffs facing the canyons below. It is readily accessible by all but 5th wheels or larger. As long as you're patient with the dust and a bit of washboard road you will be rewarded. There is no shortage of places to boondock out here. It is an austere environment. If you need anything, bring it cause it ain't here. The views lack some of the same coloration of the Grand Canyon but are nonetheless, stunning.

Stayed here just one night. The kids had a blast searching for fossils after another group said they had found them here, most likely not true but it was entertaining for them. Pretty windy but that can be expected on the plateau. We stayed out towards the end just below a raised pull out for a trailer. Plenty of space and the wind keeps noise levels down from neighbors if there is any.
Sunsets and sunrises are just fantastic, would have stayed longer but it had been a couple days since we had refilled water and had to be moving.

This place is unbelievably wonderful! We stayed 2 nights under the "hotel" with more stars, around us there were two more camps but with a lot of distance. It is important to know that you need to have a good vehicle to get there since the road is somewhat hard. waking up with the view of the valley, having peace and quiet is wonderful

The road into Muley Point starts at the top of the Moki Dugway, and you cannot tow a TT down the Moki or drive any vehicle pver 23 ft. So plan on a long 15 plus mile apprioach from the north. The Muley Point road is 3.5 miles long but there are tracks coming off the main road all the way down. I urge yiou to walk out one of those tracks before driving down it. Or take your toad down it.
The Muley Point rd is washboarded, I'd give it a rough but not horrible rating right now. If you drive to the end you will be on a rock shelf overlooking the Goosenecks and with Monument Valley clearly visible. We found a fairly level spot and parked 30-40 ft from the edge. The edge will occasionally break off.
Spectacular view, two other campers on sight but not close. Waiting for sunset now.
We are pulling a 30 ft TT and the other two campers are a popup and a Class C

Been there many times via motorcycle, be prepared and accept the fact that wind is a strong possibility. Great views and pack out any trash left by others and of course your own....to show respect for this area. PLEASE!
