Colorado tends to be extremely patrolled and expensive to camp but the hike I went on was so awesome. The campground was in this thick shrubbery and I was told only three campsites were available when nobody else around me camped.

I was able to camp free for two nights. The terrain is a bit rough but the hike to Cedros Peak is not that long and so worth it. They have fire pits set up and plenty of space to camp. You’ll have 4wheelers and dirt bikes buzzing around you but you can still isolate yourself to make it a fun camping experience.
