I like to camp over by Gooseberry up there in fairview canyon. you can basicly take off to get just about any type of camping you want up there. TONS of riding for ATV's. I think i just talked myself into going up there soon.

Sounds like both of you have been out there. What's in the area? My wife wants nice camping facilities and I want some Jeep trails in the area. Anything out there? (PM me if you want :D)


I have camped many times in Noth and South Willow canyons. South Willow canyon has the nicer road and larger camping areas. There aren't many jeep roads in South Willow though. North Willow has one large camp area and some smaller primitive camp sites. North Willow has some jeep trails that are above the main camp area that go up to some old mines. The area is very scenic and has some nice trails that you can hike up into the primitive area. There are also some trails to ride on before you get up into the canyon. There are some other canyons like Hickman canyon but I don't know about camping areas there.

This area is great for camping, fishing and riding. I spent many days camping there and riding my motor cycles on the trails when I was younger. We used to camp in a area just below the Gooseberry campground. We would ride the skyline drive and fish in the lakes and streams. The streams around gooseberry are closed to fishing until early July however.

Nebo loop you'd want to get off in payson and head up Payson canyon, Fairview area you'd want to get off on 6 and head up SF canyon, turning off and heading south on 89. then you take 31 up fairview canyon. that walkers is a good place to fill up your drinks and buy whatever snacks. from there you go to the top of the canyon and you can either continue on 31 which winds through a lot of good spots and scenery and dumps out of huntington canyon, or you can take 264 which also winds through a lot of great country and camping but dumps out on 6 after passing clear creek and scofield. The gooseberry place we mentioned is left at the top of fairview canyon on the skyline drive there's a signs for where to go. Excellent place up there, my grandparents live in fairview so i've spent a fair amount of time up there on a 4wheeler.
