Camping in Leadore

There are designated camp spots with a bathroom and fire pits towatds the end of the road, but before the campground there are a lot of spots on the way to the campground where there are fire pits that feel more secluded so you are not on top of everybody.

Dairy creek trail was a short and fun trail. Able to complete it and the water was super clear and prettyAlso tried Patterson trail, Devils lake, Everson trail, eight mile trail which not able to complete due to snow or fallen trees in the way.
