Where to boondock in Kanab, Utah

Here are a couple of ideas:


View Kanab,Utah in a larger map

The BLM site where we stayed was great. We could hear (but not see) occasional traffic on 89 during the day, but traffic stopped altogether at night. It was peaceful, and there was very little traffic on BLM 106, where we parked. Beautiful views during the day, and no artificial light at night.

The Peekaboo Trailhead is a big, open space with one shady spot and picnic tables. It gets more day use, though, and is popular with ATVers. ATVs weren't a problem for us further up the road.

We're not there, so first-come, first-served! Temperatures are still really good at that elevation.

Hi Jeanne! My pleasure - I hope you enjoy the spot. You'll be coming in from the north, I guess? I see you hit the road a couple of months ago now; are you full-timing?

Gaelyn, we're in Flagstaff to see the fam. And, to shop. Big grocery stores, sushi - THE WORKS!

Ha, Cheryl! Chances are good it will be free next time you want it. It's a good spot.

C'mon, Cyn! Grab the dogs and make a run for it!

Bob said...

Well, I guess your "secret" is pretty safe with me.

Donna K said...

If you're not there, why would we want to go??? hahahahaha....

Seriously, nice of you to share your finds. Someday, if we get REALLY courageous...maybe...

The Good Luck Duck said...

Whew, Bob. I was most concerned about you and your loose lips. And your wife, The Spy.

If you'll join us, Donna, we'd be back in a flash (a 4-hour flash).

I promise not to tell a soul. Glad you are enjoying your boondocking site.

The Good Luck Duck said...

But, you're welcome to use it, Rick! I feel safe offering it to you. :D

We just got back from a week at a wonderful site learned about from the AZ Shunpiker's book that you two stayed at, too. Next to the V-V Heritage Site (E. of Sedona). So thankful for the information you pass along.

That's a great place, Grace! I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
