Nevada Hwy 93 Wells to Jackpot
Is there any dispersed camping off Hwy 93 between I-80 and the Idaho state line? Travelling up that direction in June and looking for a spot to pull in and spend the night.

If you want to stay around Jackpot, here's where we stayed and here are my notes. The price is probably higher now:
Hwy. 93. 20 mi. N. of Jackpot, NV. At Rogerson & the Sinclair Station, take the Salmon Falls Creek Reservoir Dam Rd. west for 10 mi. It’s paved. Just before the Dam on the left is entrance to Lud Drexler BLM Park. We stayed in the campground. Very quiet, spacious sites. Clean, smell-free chemical toilets, table, firepit, grill. Dump station. Water wasn’t turned on yet. Beautiful view of lake & distant snow-covered mtns. $5 or $2.50 w/Golden Age. Just down from the campground is free boondocking at the water’s edge but a lot of fishermen used it & it was busy with traffic. N42 12.460 W114 43.888
Thanks for the info. I will keep it in mind for future use because I know we will not be going further than Jackpot. With 2 kids, The 520 miles to Jackpot is about what they will be able to take before driving my wife and I crazy with the "I'm tired of sitting here" talk.
