Uncompahgre National Forest Thistledown Campground
Reviewed May. 21, 2021

Nice site along the creek (traffic up nearby road audible but not too loud)

There are about 8 sites, most of them relatively close to each other (within sight). When we arrived ---for two days--- bathrooms were in a bad shape. But the campground host seemed to just have arrived, and the next day things looked better (still, it's close to Ouray and relatively highly frequented; incl. people stopping by on their way up Camp Bird rd to the various trailheads). Fire rings at this site do not have grills.
