About
Dispersed camping is allowed on for a period not to exceed 14 days within a 28 consecutive day period. The 28 day period begins when a camper initially occupies a specific location on public lands. The 14 day limit may be reached either through a number of separate visits or through 14 days of continuous overnight occupation during the 28 day period. After the 14th day of occupation, the camper must move outside of a 25 mile radius of the previous location until the 29th day since the initial occupation.
There is no potable water or developed facilities other than a single vault toilet on site.
Pack out all trash. There are no trash services. In the desert environment, even natural items like orange peels take years to decompose.
Travel on existing roads and trails. Vegetation in this climate can take decades to recover when crushed by off road driving or parking.
Camp in campgrounds if available. Using campgrounds reduces the number of vehicles, so that the great views are not blocked.
Have a great time. The Trona Pinnacles are a great place to explore natural wonders and experience your public lands.
