in the middle of now where, LOL - My wife and I camped in the area three years ago on our adventure to the east coast in our 95 chevy astro van. Our sleeping tent on wheels. It was early into our trip about two days out from los angeles. The camp was deserted but for a late arrival early leaver. We enjoyed the quite. But our siteseeing of the kilns was just amazing. Such craftsmanship. the rock was so well placed and the craftsmanship so superb. My wife and I were so pleased that we took the road to the camp. What great men lived in our past. I highly recomend to all that they should visit the Kilns if not camping. don and katy h.

Great Elk Hunt Experience - My wife and father and I, were camped at Eagle Valley Reservoir for 11 days and had a great time. Ben Johnson, our park ranger was very helpful about where to look for elk and other points of interest. When we did harvest an elk he told us where we could clean up with out offending others. We spent most of our hunting, but look forward to another stay. The campgrounds were excellent and well maintained. Thank you for a great place to stay.

Paradise on earth - We crossed California, Nevada and Arizona during three weeks. Next time we will go immediately to Valley of fire and stay three weeks in there. A perfect camp-site in an inforgettable state park. I have a slide-show in my mind for the rest of my life.

12/15/2010 Cathedral Gorge State Park by Poopie

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL - I love going here too because it is just an awesome place. I love the different formations and wandering around through them and on top of them too. It is just a unique place. It is worth the visit.

9/22/2010 Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge by Janet Moose

Big Sky - I love Ruby. Been going out to Shanty Town for years. I leave all my trouble behind when I am there. We love to fish, hike, explore and have fun. I do not like the fact that the follage was killed with Round Up. What kind of people kill plants that the fauna depend upon. It tore my heart out to see the deep tule.

Point of Rocks walkway is very well done - The walkway through the trees along the creek at Point of Rocks is magical. It took a tremendous amount of hard work to create and is much appreciated.

keep up the goodwork -

9/18/2009 Desert National Wildlife Range by vegasdesertfox

Nice place to get away from it all. - Over Labor Day weekend 2009(Sept) we drove up to the north entrance and came in that way. It took us 2 hours to travel a little over 17 miles so four-wheel drive is strongly recommended. We camped(dispersed) for free at Desert Pass. There are three vault toilets and enough campsites(firering, table, & tentpad for three individual families. We brought our own wood but found out that we arrived that fire restrictions were in place until Oct 1st so we had no campfire and only used our propane stove that we brought for cooking. It was a very nice escape from Las Vegas and we really felt alone and forgotten! Driving out we came across eight other jeeps & trucks heading up on Labor Day. The road is only a two-track and really not enough room to allow travel both ways. The road, Mormon Well Road is not a one-way affair but most people treat it that way. But we really enjoy the solitude once we leave the back-top highways. And just looking for a free place to camp where it is cool during the hot summer months, Desert Pass along the Mormon Well Road is always a pleasureable trip. Bumpy but nice!

What a relaxing day. - Ivan visiting the ranch.

7/29/2009 Beaver Dam State Park

Love this Park - No dam, no lake, no people!!! The ranger is excellant at keeping the place clean and quiet for those of us who want to enjoy solitude.

7/9/2009 Cave Lake State Park

Grew up - I grew up with my granparents taking me here fishing! Now in my thirties I still drive over 1000 miles (from CA) to take my children once or twice a year! It is beautiful! Love the caves driving in and all the quiet!

7/6/2009 Beaver Dam State Park by Buffalo Bill in Vegas

Great Get Away - Plenty of peace and quiet. There is no longer a reservoir, due to the dam breach in 2005. Very secluded and little visitation make this a fantastic great away. We were there for Fourth of July weekend and there were maybe 8 other sites occupied. I saw a beaver (a big boy!) and caught a single rainbow trout. The ranger (Shane?) was very helpful and friendly.

5/27/2009 Spring Valley State Park by Cindy

fishing is good and you can rent a boat - Lots of area for shoreline fishing, camping areas nice and there is a fish cleaning station. You can rent a boat a couple of miles from the lake. There is also a small store nearby.

4/25/2009 Cave Lake State Park by John and son

Father and Son Trip - Wonderful camping experience. I have brought my son here for the last three years. We always catch fish and have a great time. Every time I suggest a trip he is on board with the idea. The sites are great and the staff are always friendly.

12/16/2008 Valley of Fire State Park by sandy

Fantastic Park - Like Snow Canyon but twice a big. Very expansive. Allow lots of time to explore trails. Full hookup RV park is immaculate. Showers are great. A must to see.

10/22/2008 Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge by nunleft

loved the walk at Crystal Springs. - We went to Crystal Springs for the first time a few weeks ago. It was so peaceful and quiet. And so beautiful. No puff fish, but the springs were so clear and a beautiful walk on the boardwalk.

10/9/2008 Berlin-Ichthyosaur State Park by pbrewer6

A lovely place to visit - We (2 adults, 2 kids) enjoyed this park very much. Camping area is clean & quiet with good sized campsites. The hikes were easy & informative...the kids loved the look into the past. The Park Rangers were friendly & informative; The Views were amazing!!

10/5/2008 Cave Lake State Park by White Hawk

Nice Get Away - Had a great time!! David and I spent a couple of nights in our 1958 Airstream, the maiden trip and decided to try Cave Lake. We will be back to fish and scout out the rest of the area. Great scenery and a relaxing park with plenty of space between camp sites also the facilities are in tip top shape. Ely is a great little town and friendly folks. Enjoy!

Great National Forest Maps - If you could say the date the maps were published this would be helpful for those who wish to update current maps. You would get excellent rating from us.

9/4/2008 Desert National Wildlife Range by Briman

A relaxing day or adventurous trip - I really enjoy visiting this area. Corn Creek is an oasis in the desert that provides a nice walk and plenty of wildlife. There is also a picnic area right up the rode that is shaded and perfect for a gathering of friends and family. Any vehicle can reach this area. If you are more adventurous, there are numerous rodes leading up into the mountains with campsites and a picnic area. Four wheel drive is strongly recommended for this part. A lot of wildlife and beautiful scenery.

8/8/2008 Dayton State Park by Jessica Grant

Awesome place to take the kids! - I reciently visited the park for the first time. I have lived in Dayton for almost three years and have always driven by and never stopped until yesterday. Because of the small size of the park the trails are the perfect size for childrens small legs. We saw butterflies, dragonflies, squirrels and birds. It was a great learning experience.

5/29/2008 Washoe Lake State Park by Tracy Lea

Great place to ride your horse! - Beautiful lake and mountain views. You can ride on the dunes or by the water.
