Peak baggers that did not slow down with a kid

Amazing camp site, loud and busy

I love our campsite. We found a nice large flat area all to ourselves. A few people rolled in to the campsites around us and we were far away from the group sites which were loud. Everything was great and a few atvs came by before sundown. Once we went to bed, we were woken up multiple times by people flooring it past us with loud trailers. I understand that happens occasionally but it happened at least once an hour. I am glad it didn’t wake our kid but it was pretty frustrating that people weren’t more considerate coming through in the early hours.

BLM free camping requires clearance

There were some group campsites once you get there where we saw campers. I would recommend going too much further (there’s a sign that says medium clearance recommended) as the road gets pretty tough. I have a 6inch lift on my Tacoma and it was great. There were a few camping spots here and there. We rolled in kind of late and still got one. Seems like there’s a lot of road.

Great, unknown, limited options

We found 1 camp spot when you turn right at the fork about .5 mile before you get to the coordinates. We saw at least 3 maybe 5 tent only no vehicle spots (at least spots I didn’t want to put my car because there was growth). We parked during the week but literally saw one person who just drove by. Pretty remote considering how close it was. We didn’t go further than the coordinates so idk if there are more spots. The one we used was HUGE. big enough for a few RVs.

Worked great

Cheaper than camp comfort and just up the road. Camped on the fourth and saw the biggest beetle of my life. Comfortable for car camping and quiet!

Best RV park for tent campers

Camped here 4th of July weekend and it was quiet and family friendly. Bathrooms were clean, people were respectful, and it was just an all around nice place to camp - expensive though.

Loved this spot

Close to hiking at browns which is really pretty hike and lots of options. We found a place on Memorial Day without a reservation which never happens in Colorado. It is near the co trail too! Quiet enough for our 1 year old

Not tons of options

We drove for what felt like forever and found a place where someone else had obviously camped. Not sure if it was supposed to be there. Saw tons of wildlife. Bring bear equipment! Camped with 1 year old. Quiet and peaceful.

Tons of space

Easy to navigate. We were going to go to Lockett but it was closed due to recent fires. There were tons of options and we found a nice area. I don’t really think you need 4WD. My husband left our campsite for a gravel bike ride right after we camped because there are routes along this road. Camped with 1 year old and it was quiet.

Quiet & Easy

This was a nice cool area for end of a June. We had no problem in our lifted Tacoma but would suggest good clearance. We ended up camping along the road instead of the campground at the end because we are cheap. Bear scat in the area. Beautiful area too.
