Shallow Creek Dispersed near Creede

Highway 149 > Miner's Creek Rd > Left on 508 > Left on Shallow Creek Road to end

I got my 25ft Travel Trailer there with no issue.  Road is a little tight when it turns at Sawmill Gulch and has a decent incline, but definitely doable.  Significantly larger rigs should scout it first.

Nice clearing alongside what I'm assuming is "Shallow Creek".  Campfire ring already there next to a large evergreen.  Road continues about 100 yards past site to trailhead where there is additional parking and places for tent camping.  People do use that trailhead, so expect traffic driving by.

It's tucked away in a little valley, so decent protection from wind.  If I recall, cell is limited, but great for Starlink.  Also, while it feels remote, it's only about 10 min from Creede.
