About
Jouflas Campground sits in the Rabbit Valley Motorized Area, part of the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area managed by the BLM Grand Junction Field Office. The campground serves as a base camp for exploring the surrounding desert terrain, which draws OHV enthusiasts, mountain bikers, and those seeking solitude in the high desert. The campground features 8 designated sites, each equipped with a picnic table and fire grate. A vault toilet is available on-site. As a primitive facility, there is no potable water, trash service, or hookups. Campers must bring all water and pack out their garbage. Camping is free with a 7-day stay limit. Rabbit Valley hosts three campgrounds total: Jouflas, Castle Rocks, and Knowles Overlook. The broader McInnis Canyons NCA encompasses roughly 123,739 acres including portions of the Black Ridge Canyons Wilderness, home to the second-largest concentration of natural arches in North America.
