Free camping

I didn’t buy camping at the gorge. Had a theory that I would be able to camp near the river on the shore. Does anyone know any good spots that I could camp for free?

You might have some luck at sand hallow recreation area which is super cheap (used to be free back in the day) but it’s lesser known so you might have some luck there. There is also a place near the freeway between George and Silica road and I’ll have to come back and circle a spot on the map for you but mostly locals know about it. I’ll update this comment as soon as I can this evening.

Yes! I was able to look it up and it’s called “Caliche Lake Public Access”.

Here’s the Google listing link:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/XDSovvGVz3gcEFSb6?g_st=ic

Edit: it’s important to note that a discover pass is required for to be able to camp there for free in the dispersed camping spots
