CAMPING COLORADO

Caddis Camp


May 7, 2024

Caddis Camp Campsite is a primitive, non-reservable, fee area in the Upper Gunnison watershed of Colorado. The campsite offers stunning views of the surrounding mountains and is located near several points of interest, including the Taylor River, which is popular for fly fishing and kayaking. Other nearby attractions include the Crested Butte Mountain Resort, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, and the Kebler Pass, which offers scenic drives and hiking trails.

The campsite amenities include fire pits, picnic tables, and vault toilets. However, there is no potable water available on-site, so visitors must bring their own. The area is known for its abundant wildlife, including elk, deer, moose, and black bears. Visitors are advised to take precautions when camping in bear country.

The best time to visit the Caddis Camp Campsite is during the summer months, from June to August, when temperatures range from 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and 30-50 degrees Fahrenheit at night. However, visitors should be prepared for sudden changes in weather, as the area is prone to thunderstorms and hailstorms.

Overall, the Caddis Camp Campsite is a perfect destination for outdoor enthusiasts looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and enjoy the natural beauty of Colorado's mountains. However, visitors should be prepared for primitive camping conditions and take necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.
