Telegraph Pass BLM Dispersed Area

High-desert camping in the Dragoon Mountains with expansive valley views and easy access to historic mining country.

This BLM dispersed area sits on rolling desert hills east of the Dragoon Mountains, offering scattered camping spots with sweeping views across the Sulphur Springs Valley. Sites are naturally spaced among mesquite and ocotillo, with room for 15-20 rigs on weekends. Fire restrictions typically run May through September, and the area sees moderate use from snowbirds November through March.

Access via a well-maintained dirt road off Highway 191, suitable for any vehicle in dry conditions. The area becomes muddy and potentially impassable during monsoon season (July-August). No facilities or water — pack everything in and out.
