Split Mountain Group Campground on the Green River in Dinosaur National Monument, Utah

 


 Quoting from the National Park Service website for Dinosaur National Monument:

The Split Mountain Group Campground is located along the banks of the Green River at an elevation of 4800 feet. The highly eroded Split Mountain towers over the campground. The campground is near the famous dinosaur quarry, where you can see 149 million-year-old dinosaur bones still encased in the rock. Right beside the campground is the Split Mountain Boat Ramp where river rafters come off the Green River after trips through Dinosaur National Monument's canyons.

 You can see all about this campground on the Recreation.gov website for "Split Mountain Group Campground." By the way, National Forest and National Park campgrounds do not compare favorably with Utah State Parks. This was a lovely place to camp but the facilities at Utah State Parks are much better.
