Boreas Pass Section House

Just outside of Breckenridge is this beautiful pass that heads all the way down to fairplay if you wanted to continue driving. the pass goes through the national forest so dispersed camping is available all along the road. The spot we found was small but had the best view of the town and the 14ers beyond. you could really only fit one tent here safely. This spot is only a few yards off the pass and we did have a reasonable amount of traffic. The area is also dusty and the site appeared to be covered in ash from previous fires. This was mostly fine except all of our gear did come home with a layer of gray dust on it. all in all there is a wide variety of sites on the pass with impeccable views. You are somewhere in the neighborhood of 11,000 feet so pack for wind. we hope to go back in the fall for the folliage!!

This campsite is right in Breckenridge, Colorado. The drive itself is breathtaking. There are many campsites along the road with a fire ring. Majority of the sites are far enough away from one another so you can be secluded if you would like. I only have front wheel drive and the road isn’t paved (gravel) but I had no problems. Most sites you can have your car right next to your spot as well which I prefer you can also park RVs in some areas as there are pull offs on the side of the road. You are able to stay up to 14 nights as well. And the best part is that this road is all free camping! No cell service past a certain point.
