Camp Sites | Dantes Canyon Trailhead Primitive Camping
Hype:
The trailhead for the Dante's Canyons makes a decent place to set up base camp when canyoneering in the area. There are no improvements, just the side of the road to camp on.

Navigate to 37.686711, -110.536334.
For the most part, you should be able to follow Google Maps. However by default, Google Maps navigation will (as of 2019) take you on a stretch of road that is extremely rough and impassible. At 37.695308°, -110.583872°, turn south instead of continuing northeast. Stay left at the next 4 forks, and the roads will meet back up at 37.695963°, -110.553218° where you will turn southeast and continue to the trailhead.

Jeremy Dye, R-Fest Participants,
We camped at the trailhead to the Dantes Canyons during R-Fest. There were a whole bunch of us there, and we split up into several groups to do different canyons different days. I arrived at camp around 12:30 Thursday night after everyone else had gone to bed. I stayed 2 nights and we did Paradiso Canyon and Inferno Canyon on Friday then Purgatory Canyon on Saturday.
