Camp Sites | Sandthrax Campground
Hype:
The Sandthrax Campsite is a very convenient primitive camping area right next to the highway. It is located at the mouth of Sandthrax Canyon and is also close to the Leprechaun Canyons. Bathrooms are located five miles down the road at the Hog Springs rest stop. Please keep the area clean.

We camped at Sandthrax for two nights while doing Slideanide Canyon and Shillelagy Canyon. The temperature at night was in the low 30s, so it was a bit cold. Savannah especially had a hard time sleeping and getting warm the first night. Tara, Cooper, and I slept in the bed of the truck.

We camped at Sandthrax Campsite for 3 nights over Memorial Day weekend while we canyoneered in the area. We split up and did the East and West forks of Leprechaun in two groups, we did Lucky Charms, Angel Slot, Angel Cove Slot (north and south forks), Main Fork of Maidenwater, and East Fork of Shelelagh. It was a fun-packed weekend.

Tara came down with a bad cold, so she and Cooper stayed home while I took the girls. We got to camp at about 11:00 Friday night. I got the tent set up in the dark then tucked the sleeping kids in their sleeping bags. Saturday we did Hogwarts Canyon then Morocco Canyon, and Sunday we did Death Canyon.

I don't know if it was especially busy because it was St. Patrick's Day weekend, but the whole area was packed. We managed to claim the last patch of ground in the campsite. There were people everywhere. We camped Friday night after stopping at Little Egypt on the way down. Then on Saturday, we did Shenanigans Canyon and the East fork of Leprechaun Canyon.
