Dinosaur National Monument - Split Mountain Permits

Great spot to camp, there are places to explore and it's not to big so there never feels like everyone is packed in. The river can make it feel muggy sometimes but the breathtaking landscape makes up for that. Getting up at dawn and seeing the sunlight shining only on the east side of the hills while you make breakfast is one of the best experiences I've had. It is a little cold but I camped in th... Great spot to camp, there are places to explore and it's not to big so there never feels like everyone is packed in. The river can make it feel muggy sometimes but the breathtaking landscape makes up for that. Getting up at dawn and seeing the sunlight shining only on the east side of the hills while you make breakfast is one of the best experiences I've had. It is a little cold but I camped in the last week of March.

Great scenic spot. The cottonwoods add much needed shade to the group camp ground on the Green River. The flushing toilets where in operation and cleaned daily. The red ants are everywhere be prepared if you are ground camping. The ground vegetation disappears about mid may and the daily wind cycle will give you a sandblasted experience. All in all the river and the scenery makes it worth it bu... Great scenic spot. The cottonwoods add much needed shade to the group camp ground on the Green River.

I'm the host at Split Mountain. In the late spring and summer it's a group campsite that's $40 per night. Reservations are highly recommended. The campground is on the Green River and close to the Quarry. Water, restrooms, and picnic areas are on site. It's close to a couple of trails, including the river trail which is the only trail in the park that allows dogs. It is also close to the boat ramp... I'm the host at Split Mountain. In the late spring and summer it's a group campsite that's $40 per night. Reservations are highly recommended. The campground is on the Green River and close to the Quarry. Water, restrooms, and picnic areas are on site. It's close to a couple of trails, including the river trail which is the only trail in the park that allows dogs. It is also close to the boat ramp, where rafters take out after trips on the Yampa or Green. Remember to be courteous to other campers! Tents don't block sound and it's not polite to walk through someone's campsite (even if you're walking to the restroom). Also, one of the wonderful things about this spot and this park is the night sky! Even when there's a new moon I don't need a flashlight if it's a clear night. The stars provide enough light to walk around. Bright head lamps or flashlights can ruin the night vision of those around you, especially if you look at them while wearing the head lamp. I suggest a red or green light - it's easy to make a cover for your lights. By using colored lights, you can see if you need it and you won't zap the night vision away from other guests. This park is off the beaten path, but worth the time!
