RV travel guide
Kane County
County seat Kanab, 3,990 sq mi across Utah. Everything an RV traveler should read before rolling in — where you can boondock, the roads worth the detour, and the local rule that actually matters.
The county in brief
A traveler's read on Kane County
Wave permit lottery odds at North Coyote Buttes inside Kane County's Grand Staircase-Escalante section run roughly 1-in-25 during peak spring and fall — BLM caps daily entry at 64 visitors via the only sandstone-protection lottery of its size in the system, and a $7 application fee buys one entry per applicant per day.
Kane County wraps the Vermilion Cliffs, the eastern Zion corridor, the southern Bryce approach, and the western Grand Staircase, with Kanab (population 4,968) the practical resupply hub between Page AZ and St. George UT. Coral Pink Sand Dunes State Park's 3,730-acre dune field is one of two pink-sand dune systems in North America; the developed campground accepts rigs up to 40 ft with electric hookups.

Your next step
Seeing Kane County from a rig
Most public land here allows dispersed camping for up to 14 days, which makes this county far friendlier to a self-contained rig than to a hotel plan.
