Camp at Pearce Ferry Primitive Campground, Arizona

The Pearce Ferry Primitive Campground is located near the Pearce Ferry Seismograph Station. It has a vaulted restroom, metal fire rings and emergency call box station. Shade is limited, so bring your own when camping in summer. One of several ferry routes along the river, Pearce Ferry was intended for Mormon settlers traveling south from St. George, Utah, to new farmland in Arizona. The first party crossed at Pearce Ferry in 1877, and included wagons and livestock. The terrain to the south of the river proved so difficult for wagons that few settlers followed across the river and Pearce abandoned his ferry after six years. Amenities: Vaulted Restroom Metal Fire Rings Emergency Call Box Picnic Area Limited Shade TIPS: 15-day Camping Limit Fee to enter Lake Mead NRA Summertime is hot. Bring your own shade.
