THE HORSE
CAMPGROUNDS are also listed under their
individual areas, but we thought this might be helpful to those of you
who are only looking for campsites that are set up with corrals for your
horses. The fee campgrounds all have water sources and
normally four
corrals per campsite. The campgrounds do have areas for manure storage,
but please make sure that you haul your own manure to these storage
areas. The campground fees don't even cover the hauling charges. It
would make it hard on everyone if you did not clean up after your own
animals.
The campgrounds have trails to ride leading from the campgrounds and heading into the US Forest Service land. The campgrounds are away from lakes or rivers to prevent pollution, but they often have creeks running through them so please be careful. The US Forest Service and Hoodoo are pleased to be able to help you with these sites, but because of the expense involved the more you can help out the lower our rates can stay. Occasionally those without horses decide to stay in these campgrounds. This is allowed but discouraged. Hoodoo manages over 1,000 campsites for those without horses and there are plenty more that we do not manage. But the horse campgrounds are not plentiful and at times are full. While we do realize that non-horse campers may on occasion have reason to stay in these sites, we hope you will be courteous to those who the sites were meant for. The only horse campground that can be reserved is Sheep Springs The reservations are available through the National Reservations System. If you would like to see more reservation opportunities please let us know and we will include more campgrounds in the system. But please realize that these reservations are made into a national system that we do not control and costs an extra fee to make.
