Watch the sun come up over the Sleeping Ute Mountain in Colorado and enjoy a gorgeous sunset as the sun sets over the Bears Ears National Monument in Utah. We are off the grid and have no electricity or water. Our graveled camping sites are easy to access. We are located next to a paved road. You do not need high clearance vehicles or 4-wheel drive. Camp in a natural high desert environment consisting of cedar and pinion trees, Brigham tea, sagebrush, etc. Great views of the night sky. An ancient Indian mound is on site. The Five Kiva Ruin and Nations Natural Bridge are within hiking distance. Minutes away is the town of Blanding with restaurants, hospital, gas stations and a dump station. Its only a short drive to five different National Monuments: Bears Ears, Natural Bridges, Rainbow Bridge, Hovenweep, and Canyon of The Ancients. Take a scenic drive over the Blue Mountain and Elk Ridge. Southeastern Utah is full of archeology history to hike and explore.

Camping with Coyotes

The site was really easy to find and location was beautiful. The bathroom was very clean and kept in perfect condition. Coyotes serenaded us in the middle of the night, which was cool to listen to. We had coffee in the morning with the sunrise.

Site 4

This was our first Hip Camp so don't have anything (other than lots of camping in general) to compare it to. The porta potty was very clean, we stayed at site 4, which had a small tree for some shade but it also was the only site that was not finished off with crushed gravel. If it'd rained we'd have been in a mucky mess. Dry as it was, it was pretty dusty. It looks like the hosts have just started this venture so we wish them all the best. Pretty sunset over Bears Ears National Monument.
