A group of us are heading to White Canyon Black Hole this weekend. We are taking a 28ft camper with us. Does anybody know where good camping is near White Canyon. We are also doing Fry Canyon so anything near there would work as well. Any insight would be great.

Mile Marker 66.5, the Soldier's Grave is where I often camp.

From: http://climb-utah.com/CM/cheesebox.htm

The Soldier's Grave: In 1884 several cowboys got into a dispute with some Paiute Indians concerning the ownership of a horse. The cowboys called in the U.S. Cavalry to help them with the dispute. A chase ensued during which the Paiutes ambushed the soldiers and killed two of them. The Soldiers are buried at the marked grave just off highway 95. The Paiutes were never captured.

A group of us are heading to White Canyon Black Hole this weekend.

We have been contemplating the Hole this weekend as well. Weather has been kinda up in the area. White Canyon was flowing last weekend. Not sure what our plans are gonna be as of yet. Be safe out there.
