We dispersed camped here. If you exit off of 82 then turn onto 24, that will take you up to Lakeview campground which is a pay for site. Keep going past that campground and up there you can pull off many different places to camp. Very amazing views with trails nearby. You will be up by Mt Elbert forebay lake looking out over Twin Lakes. WE LOVED IT. No one bothered us, it was like we were in our own world up there. No trash cans, no toilets, no nothing. Bring your own gear/power. There are some motorcycle riders in the area usually but it's not to bad. They are just going out on the trails. Ppl in the distance with gas generators didn't leave them making noice all night either. Solar is the way!!! Pack it in, pack it out, so we can keep these gems. Big rigs will drag in some spots and would be dangerous to enter with. Most of the big rigs camped at the very top hill if you can get up the steep entrance.
