More details

Exit I-70 at Rabbit Valley and head north towards the Walk Through Time trailhead. Turn left and follow the gravel road up a fairly steep ascent to the top of the ridge where there are least 6 sites on BLM land. I did see a large RV up there but I'm not sure it's suitable for an inexperienced driver. Would make a good free stopover between Grand Junction and Moab. Disadvantage is you're still relatively close to I-70 and and get some traffic noise.
