Beautiful backcountry camping close to the city!

These are all backcountry sites and you have to be at least a 1/2 mile from any road before camping.  The best spots are more than a mile in at the meadows anyway!

You'll start from the Scurves parking lot and head up to either the lower or upper meadow.  Beware of moose as they are commonly spotted hanging out in the lakes near the meadows.  Most people simply enjoy the nature and serenity but there are also 3 peaks nearby that offer amazing views!  If you want to hike then they are Broads Fork Twin Peaks, Sunrise Peak, and Dromedary Peak.  All of which require no more than class 4 scrambling.  There is also a lifetime's worth of climbing in big cottonwood and little cottonwood canyons for before or after your backpacking trip
