Not that it matters much, but it's the Kaibab National Forest and the info presented is accurate.
As far as Utah, a great place few folks go to with a big rig but can is west of Monticello in the La Sal National Forest. Take CR101 west from the center of town to the top of the ridge. There is a large open area with room for any size rig at the crest of the hill on your right if go this way. CR101 connects with Utah state highway 211, the road to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. Along this road is Newspaper rock, and there is a dry camping area across the road from it with room for any size rig too. There is a large asphalt parking area at Newspaper rock so you can walk across the road to find your spot. The last time we were there, there was a fee tube, but it was not in service.
Goosnecks is Awesome.
Near Mexican Hat is the BLM Sand Island campground. This campground has room for any size RV. Here is some info on it...

Hi,
While you can not camp outside a campground in Grand Canyon National Park, you can camp for free in any of the Grand Canyon National Forest...
