Grays Peak Summer Trailhead Dispersed Camping

Absolutely beautiful spot with lots of dispersed spots to choose from - go a little past the trail head and you’ll see them. Creek, mountains, mountain goats.
Road is rough, had our 1 ton with a truck camper and made it just fine 2WD just had to take it slow. Was the perfect camping spot to wake up early and hike Grays & Torreys Peak!

My partner and I camped out here at the base of Grays Peak on Steven’s Gulch Primitive Road. It was such a cool spot! We had plenty of privacy while camping. Will go back again! It was the best time. You will need a 4WD to travel to the spot. It’s about 2 miles off road.

We camped overnight in the car at Gray's and Torrey's peak trailhead at the top of Steven's Gulch Road to do the hike in the morning. There were a few pull offs lower down on the road, but the majority before the trailhead is all private property.

Others have said the road isn't great and recommended 4WD, but let me tell you, it was rough in my small, AWD SUV.

The trailhead lot has a number of dispersed camping sites and fire rings, some offering more privacy than others. Do note that on the weekends (we stayed Friday night into Saturday morning) that the lot fills up early in the AM and some people have no social awareness of their volume level. We were woken up by a constant influx of hikers starting around 330-4.
