Stage Stop Meadows Dispersed

1 ReviewAdd Review
SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

Hikers, bikers, and OHV riders have direct access to trails from this dispersed site along Cottonwood Pass Road in Gunnison County. The meadow setting gives open sightlines toward the surrounding terrain, and campfires are permitted. Space is plentiful. Campers exploring campgrounds near Pitkin will find this a workable drive-in stop, with Taylor Lake Backroads Dispersed about two miles southwest for those wanting a different layout.
