Aug 2019 - Found a perfect little spot that was a close 5 minute maybe 1/2 mile in drive from Winter Park. Managed to make it in with a 2WD sedan. The road wasn't too bad and I'm sure I could have made it further on down the road had I tried. I found an already established spot that was fairly open just off the road with a rock fire ring. Due to the spot I chose and it's relative closeness to Winter Park there were often others driving by that could easily be heard/seen. There was a relatively steep drop of maybe 30 yards or so to Vasquez Creek. There is a decent little established trail that runs along the creek which offers nice views. If you are willing to park along the road and hike down to the creek there were a few open areas where others had set up fire pits right close to the creek.

Sept 2020 - I read multiple reviews that there were dispersed camping all along this stretch of road. Although this is true, there were no camping signs just about everywhere it looked like there was a good spot to pull off the road and camp. Ultimately I was able to back my SUV into a spot and make due for a couple of nights. Unfortunately there was a statewide fire ban which sucked so be sure to check on that before you go or be ok without. I was about a 1/4 of mile or so north of the Silver dollar Lake and Murray Lake trail (5/5👍). Right around that point is where I started to loose cell service. Overall this was a fairly good spot due to how close and easy it was to pop into Georgetown for supplies and the closeness to both the Mt Bierstadt Trail and the one mentioned above.
