Campsite 1, The Cattle Yards, was a little tricky to find at first — the Google Maps directions and listing description could definitely use some tidying up. But once we arrived, it was absolutely worth it! The campsite was very clean, peaceful, and surrounded by stunning views. We even had a few friendly visitors — some cows and two camels. One of them looked so sleepy that we ended up naming him Gerald, which gave us a good laugh every morning.
It does get very cold at night, so definitely pack plenty of blankets and layers. There’s little to no phone signal in the area, which turned out to be a bonus since it made for a perfect off-grid escape for a few days. Someone had accidentally taken our reserved spot, but we set up elsewhere without any issues, and no one seemed to mind.
Overall, it was a beautiful, quiet stay — a bit of an adventure getting there, but once you do, it’s a truly special place. Thank you for having us!
