BLM land is often entirely free, but doesn’t have “campsites” as many would expect. State and national parks often have campsites with running water, flush toilets, even hot showers, and quite in the middle of nowhere.
BLM campsites are often a flat piece of ground that looks identical to the last seven thousand square miles.
In my experience, the vast majority of public land (forests and BLM land) is free to enter and recreate on if you aren’t using services like a campsite. National parks are more likely to charge entrance or parking fees but you are also more likely to get things like trash service and paved roads.
That being said, it’s still pretty cheap. You can get an annual pass for $80 that covers you and everyone in your car.
