Free Camping at Ocotillo Wells SVRA & Clark Dry Lake (Borrego Springs) (202)
Ocotillo Wells SVRA:
You can camp here for 30 days within any calendar year. It can be noisy at night due to loud music and dirt bikes. On two of our three stays here, the nights were peaceful and the stars were brilliant. The other time, we were woken up by dirt bikes and loud music. We take the chance because the setting is so beautiful, there are flush toilets, and coin op showers. For a more peaceful location, check out Hawk Canyon in Anza Borrego State Park or Clark Dry Lake which is just outside of Borrego Springs.
_______________________________________________
Clark Dry Lake:
This is a great BLM free camping spot where tons of snowbirds park in the winter time. It is a large area so you don't feel too closed in, and it is close to Borrego Springs. The public library has fast, and free wifi and the new building is beautiful. There are also two grocery stores in town and gas stations. We will definitely be back since it is such a peaceful and convenient spot.

About this video: Ocotillo Wells SVRA is one of my favorite places to ride. I have been there many times and it's crazy to think that I haven't seen it in its entirety. Whats even crazier is that Ocotillo Wells is only a small piece of the much larger Anza-Borrego Desert State park. Anza-Borrego is the largest park in the California State Park system, and it is filled with various types of terrain including dirt roads, sand washes and canyons that stretch for miles. Join us as we take a couple of DRZ400's, a few Husquvarna FE 501's and a Beta 500 RR-S on a dual sport ride that starts at the Ocotillo Wells border and travels into some really awesome areas of Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Enjoy!

Odd Findings in the Anza Borrego Desert
While most people come to the Anza Borrego Desert to see the amazing wild flowers and the giant mountain views, I was excited to check out the 130 + metal sculptures that are scattered through-out the area. Ricardo Breceda has been an artist and sculptor for many years with world wide recognition. These sculptures started being installed here back in 2008. Next time you're in the Anza Borrego area, come for the flowers but stay for the artwork!
