About

Overview

Superbowl Campground is a good option for visitors wishing to recreate in the Indian Creek area of Bears Ears National Monument or be close to the Needles District of Canyonlands National Park. The campground is located south off the Needles Highway (accessed from Utah State Route 211), approximately 6.5 miles southeast of Canyonlands National Park and 13.5 miles northwest of Newspaper Rock. The campground provides 37 campsites that each feature a tent/trailer space, a picnic table, a fire ring, and vault toilets. Each campsite can hold 10 people and 2 vehicles. There is no drinking water at the campground. Reservations are not available for camping at this location. Individual campsites are available on a first come, first served basis upon arrival at the self-register kiosk at the site. The Superbowl Group Site is available for larger groups, and may be reserved here. The Indian Creek area is generally primitive and undeveloped, with few services.

Recreation

The Indian Creek area of Bears Ears National Monument has gained international recognition for its extraordinary natural beauty and recreational opportunities. The Indian Creek canyon opens to a broad valley rimmed by Wingate Sandstone cliffs known for world-class rock climbing. Prominent geologic features include Lavender Mesa, Bridger Jack Mesa, and North and South Six Shooter Peaks. This spectacular setting and rich archeological resources provide visitors with recreational opportunities such as rock climbing, camping, cultural resource viewing, scenic photography, and off-highway vehicle (OHV) touring on designated routes.

Natural Features

The campground is located near the banks of Indian Creek. Creek flow is intermittent, and except for spring or immediately after precipitation, the creek bed is typically dry. Cottonwood trees line the banks of the creek and provide shade at some campsites.
