Definitely one of the most disgusting and sketchiest pieces of BLM that I’ve ever seen. Brappers and shooters are not a big deal. But the homeless population and trash here is overwhelming. Rolled up and left. This is the kind of place where you will get robbed or murdered. STAY AWAY.

Every time we come here it seems to get worse and worse.. the road in is awful and long and the shooting at nearby ranges never stops, sometimes well into the night it's still going strong. I don't recommend unless you know what you're getting yourself into and your okay with the drawbacks

It’s a really nice spot off the highway. Gunfire through the day on Saturday. Ceased around sunset. Decently packed, so come early.

Going in the road was rough with wash board and occassioal water dips. Going out I met the road grader. It was awesome. Road is much better. Rpod and I went 22 mph when we usually do 12. The road continues passed the shooting area which is most undesirable-- Garbage everywhere, just like the last shooting area. Maybe there is a link between the two, but in proceeding to the coordinates for camping all of the garbage disappeared and the exceptional beauty of a little higher elevation created a greater diversity in plant life. It is a garden. Yeah the shooting is constant, but far enough away to not be obnoxious. There was some ohv traffic, but not overwhelming. Public lands are for everyone.

It’s a fine spot for spending a night while you are on a road, but there are some things to be aware of. Table Mesa trailhead area is BLM land in a deserted area couple of miles in after you turn of highway. It’s slightly rugged and has a feel that same people might be camping there for a while. It has trash everywhere, ground is covered with empty bullet shells as this is an area where people come to target shoot and gunshots are going on all day and at all hours of the night. We spent two nights there, one on or way to California and on on a way back to Colorado. Nobody bothered us and everything went well.

First of all, there are a lot of different people who share this spot. Off roaders, shooters, campers and maybe even some who some what live out here. I had a spot to myself and no one bothered anyone else. The road in is bumpy so just take your time. I pulled out 34 footer in with no issues.
Happy Boondocking!

So close to Phoenix to get there early or leaving there late. Road bumpy in some sections but fine if you slow down and take care. Some dickheads on main road and plentiful shorting areas which seem respected.

The road to the site is bumpy and rutted. Once there, though, the campsite is clean and has pit toilets. The toilets were disgusting when I arrived but the next morning they were hosed down and were fine after that.
I lucked out and didn't have any off-road vehicles at the site until Friday night when the "crank up the music, party, and ride our dune buggy" people came.
The area was quiet except for the people that ran their generator all day.
Not much wildlife except for whatever bug bit my leg in multiple spots. I had felt a little sting once in a while down there but didn't bother to check. After I left the area I noticed itchy red sores on my leg.
I downgraded the site quality because of spots where the gravel was too deep, making it difficult to maneuver. Also, I had difficulty finding a level spot because I wanted a site away from the concrete strip near the restrooms.

The road leading to this spot is rough and bumpy. We have a 44 ft 5th wheel and did fine as long as we were going slow. Be aware that the asphalt ends and turns into a dirt road. People speed up and down this road and there are some blind corners. Many ATV's use this road as well. The spot we chose wasn't too bad. It was dirt but it was level we had good cell service and some channels through our antenna. I read the reviews about the shooting range close by so I was aware, however, it was non stop morning noon and night. My family started to hike the Black canyon trail and had to stop because someone was shooting near the hiking trail in a non shooting area. Pretty scary. The part we did hike was riddled with trash and garbage that people hauled out to shoot at in a non shooting area.
Overall not worth the hastle

Easy free site out in the desert north of Phoenix but still close to amenities. Even though where we posted up was relatively clean, the area is very trashy. Also there is a shooting range just up the road. To balance this out, you can get on the Black Canyon Natl Rec Trail right from camp. Great mountain biking or hiking.
