Okay spot in the aspen trees
If you can't show a better campground nearby like lost man campground, this tiny option can work. Small Adjacent sites big enough for a car and tent and table but not much more. Visually nice as it is in the aspens but within meters of the busy road and on a hill so half the cats are climbing. and your neighbors are super cozy nextdoor. Good option if you are exhausted or everywhere else is taken, but sim for others if you can. We arrived around 10 on a weekday in July and found a few open spots.
No privacy. Too close to road
We drove to Lost Man Campground where the NF service decided to close in September which was total BS. We backtracked to Lincoln Dispersed with the same results. So we settled for this campground which only had two sites available on Sept 29. For $25 a night we found this to have very little privacy and loud road (Rt82) right next to it. The bathroom was the worst I’ve seen in the 6 week road trip and the water was already turned off. The views were nice and it you could get a site on the outer ring it might be more enjoyable. There are some easy and beautiful hikes around this area. When we return to this area it won’t be so close to the end of the season and we will try NOT to be at this campground again.
Beautiful location but too close to the road.
Weller campground has decent sized campsites surrounded by Aspen trees and overall it was nice and pleasant but the close proximity to Independence Pass Road was occasionally loud, I would give this a higher rating if the road wasn’t there. Many of the campground photos show a creek but that’s actually not in the campground and is located on the trailhead that’s accessed from across the road at the Weller Trailhead parking lot. There are bear bins in the campsites and the campground has bear-resistant trash cans. When I camped there in mid September the temperature was 38 degrees F at 6am.
