Riflerack31 Report post Posted April 17, 2020 I thinking of camping on the rim next hunting trip i go on. Anybody know if we can be by ourselves and not be bothered? I know its an impossible question. But how are the crowds in general, in deer and turkey season around august/september? I know there will be campers, but as long as we can find a place to ourselves, close to a dirt road with nobody close is all we want. Were thinking the rim area south of knoll lake.

azbirdhunter88 Report post Posted April 17, 2020 I think you would be just fine in that area right now. Especially most staying home you’ll prob not see too many people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azbirdhunter88 Report post Posted April 17, 2020 I read that wrong. At that time I usually see campers back there but there are quite a few areas closer to knoll lake that aren’t as crowded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mbiewer Report post Posted April 21, 2020 We go up there a few times across the summer. Just like anywhere else, holiday weekends suck. We were "priviliged" to listen to a wedding once by bear canyon lake...at about 10pm... man those people wouldnt shut up. ha ha anyway went up to help my buddy on his cow hunt in 4a this past october. We camped off of the 300 closer to woods canyon (his choice, not mine) and found lots of people in the vista camp grounds. Worked into the unit betwwne the 300 fork and north into the flats. a fair amount of people still out just camping. Think i found more poeple camping when we were swtiching spots for the das than we found hunters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of folks camping and lots of folks speeding around in UTVs by my experience. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
