Camping fee unknownSet campsite
Camping fee not confirmed Nobody has written down what it costs to camp here, so we can’t tell you. It might be free. It might not. We read through the Bureau of Land Management’s records in August 2026 and found nothing either way. Watch for a sign when you pull in, or ask them before you set off. How often is a free campsite actually confirmed free? We counted.

About this place

Conger Mountain lies in western Millard County, about 50 miles west of Delta. It is empty country. There is a lot of room and very few people.

The mountain itself tops out at 8,144 feet, in the Confusion Range. Mule deer, antelope and a herd of wild horses live here.

Several threatened or endangered birds do too. Swainson’s hawk, Western Snowy Plover, White-Faced Ibis and Bald Eagles.

What is near here

This is a good base for somewhere people travel a long way to see.

Every distance on this page is the driving distance. A short distance can still take a long time. The road may be closed for the season, covered in snow, or washed out. Many of these roads are dirt. Plan your route before you leave home. Out here there is often no phone signal to look it up on the way.

Nearest town and supplies

Ely is big enough that you’d normally expect fuel and somewhere to buy food. Nobody from here has been to check, so don’t count on it if you’re running low.

Why the drive to town is usually twice what the map says — what we found measuring every campsite in this guide.

When it’s time to move on

On most public land you can camp for 14 days before you have to move on. Check this site’s own limit before you plan a long stay. When you move on, the Bureau of Land Management usually wants you at least 25 to 30 miles away. So the free campsites closest to you are the ones you cannot use.

Five in this guide sit inside that 25 miles. The nearest one you could move to is Fossil Mountain, Utah — 28 miles in a straight line, but a 49 mile drive.

This guide covers five states and does not list every free campsite, so there may be something closer that we do not hold. Check this site’s own rule before you rely on it.

Have you been here?

Fees and access change, and the records do not always keep up. If you have been, tell us what you found.

The thing we cannot get from any government record is what the drive in is actually like. If you have done it, this is the most useful thing you can leave behind. We read everything before it appears, and we print a first name with it if you give one.

Where this information comes from

The description on this page is ours. The facts in it, and the fee and facility details below it, come from the Bureau of Land Management’s own records, read in August 2026; opened and read by a person on 2026-08-27.
