The land manager lists this site. Someone from the agency inventoried it, so it is a real camp — not a spot we guessed at. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

DONATION-based free camping: the Ray and Donna West Free RV Park in Muleshoe is free for up to 3 days, but a donation box is on site -- please leave a donation to help the city and the Muleshoe Heritage Foundation keep it open. It sits at 1918 W American Blvd on US-84, with 8-10 improved pull-through spots with full hookups (water, sewer, electric) and free internet. If you need longer, you can get a permit by the third day and pay $25/day for up to 5 more days (8 max). First-come, no reservations. The town hopes travelers stop, shop and eat local. Rules change -- confirm the current policy with the City of Muleshoe before you go, and be a good guest.
