    Goose Island is a FCFS BLM campsite and is between Moab, Utah and Arches National Park. It has a small camping charge and includes outhouses with no water. I've camped there 4 times. The restrooms are usually smelly, but the convenience and low cost makes it a desirable night stay.

    I hear a lot of people in the comment section that states you need a high clearance 4x4, NO YOU DO NOT!, Most blm land is flat with low clearance. There are many areas on BLM land that are patrolled, ask me how I know. Been doing it for 24 years now. And if you things criminals do not go out to these lands, WRONG!, they do and their has been many cases of individuals having to deal with this situation. be careful wherever you are and take a garmin gps monitor with you, emergency equipment, protection if you can, a large dog. And if you can , go with a second person.

    Over the last 40 years I average 3 to 4 weeks camping and 99% on BLM lands. I've only once seen a sign that states No Camping. Had magazine with maps of Blm lands. When land becomes private the first thing you see is a NO TRESSPASSING sign. TY to BLM.

    Yakima canyon road was great! Even tho we had to evacuate from a forest fire, it was an unforgettable night and everyone is safe, and we found a safer spot to stay the night thanks to BLM campsites along the road. Learned what BLM was that night and will be for sure staying on BLM land in the future!

      There are some free camping in the Northeast. Do a search in You Tube in what state your interested in. Search “boondocking or free camping in New York”
      & you’ll come up with some videos. I have a boondocking playlist from these videos on almost every state.

    • @hamhouke
      @hamhouke Рік тому +6

      BLM land is always my first choice for boondocking opportunities when out West. I am a full-timer and anytime I am West of the Rockies, you can usually find me on BLM land (or not find me ;). If I was to pay $30-$80 bucks a night for campsites, I would be broke in no time flat. Besides, there are no reservations on BLM land and there is always somewhere you will fit that is open; often you will have the whole place nearly to yourself. Yes, the roads can be rough, and sometimes it is REALLY an off-road adventure, but that also cuts way down on who will be near your camp. If you own an RV and want to live as “rent free” as possible, BLM land is the ticket. Back East, there are National Forrests and some state lands that allow dispersed camping. Not nearly as plentiful as the BLM, but when supplemented by Wall-Marts, Cracker Barrel’s, rest stops and truck stops for quick overnighters, one can make due. Public land ownership is the only way this is possible. Every speck of land in the Eastern half of the country is almost always privately owned, whether it is used or not. If you want to see more of this kind of opportunity, support federal purchase of conservation lands anytime one comes up. Think of them like timeshares if you like. You already pay the dues (taxes), so don’t be bashful about getting the most you can from them, they are yours.
