Anglers and creek campers have options at Owl Creek Vista, a dispersed site in Uncompahgre National Forest managed by the US Forest Service. The drive in from the highway is longer than many expect. Multiple spots sit directly alongside creeks or rivers, making water access a defining feature of the area. Campers exploring campgrounds around Uncompahgre National Forest will find nearby alternatives including Owl Creek Pass Road Dispersed — Uncompahgre NF, roughly 3.5 miles east, if this site is occupied.
