Summary
Reservations aren’t accepted—sites are first-come, first-served. A nightly fee applies, but no permits are needed unless fishing or hiking in wilderness areas. Amenities include pit toilets, potable water (hand pump), fire rings, and picnic tables—no hookups or dump stations. RVs up to 26 feet can access the campground via a gravel road. Set in a serene, forested setting near Trappers Lake at 9,600 feet, it’s ideal for fishing, hiking the Flat Tops Wilderness, and wildlife spotting. Best visited July–September for mild weather and full access.

Camping Essential Practices
Take all trash, food scraps, and gear back with you to keep campsites clean and protect wildlife.
Respect Wildlife
Observe animals from a distance, store food securely, and never feed wildlife to maintain natural behavior and safety.
Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
