Water-fill and dump facilities are at Oasis and White Sands. The recreation area is always open; fall visitor-center hours are Friday–Sunday, 9 a.m.–4 p.m. Cell coverage is limited. Visitor-center Wi-Fi only supports Recreation.gov access; it is not general campground internet. Sand Mountain’s nearly 700-foot height is a landform dimension, not trail mileage.
