Eggnog - Starr Springs Road is an incredibly unique trail winding through a moon-like landscape just north of Bullfrog, Utah. Despite southern Utah being known for its red rock sandstone, this interesting little pocket of BLM land is bathed in blue and grey tones. Bentonite clay hills roll on far to the north, with a distant view of the well-known Waterpocket Fold to the west. Towering near the eastern end is Mount Hillers, a dramatic 10,000-foot-plus mountain peak with out-of-place red fins at its base. With the mashup geology, this trail is perfect for anyone in a high clearance 4WD vehicle looking to diversify their weekend overland trip.

Dispersed camping is limited to a few rocky spots along the trail. Luckily, there is a very peaceful and scenic campground at the eastern end of the trail called Starr Springs Campground. They offer a handful of designated campsites nestled among the oak tree grove, fire rings, picnic tables, and pit toilets.
