Quiet enough that road noise is not a factor, Red Creek Road runs through BLM land outside Powderhorn with several dispersed sites spread along a good gravel surface that narrows as elevation increases. The first site has open sightlines toward the reservoir. No cell signal reaches here. Campers who want free, drive-in camping with minimal infrastructure and no crowds will find this stretch a workable base for places to camp near Powderhorn and the surrounding Gunnison region.
