Summary
A permit may be required for extended stays; check with local Forest Service offices. There are no amenities: no toilets, water, fire rings, grills, or picnic tables. RVs can access the area if self-contained, but there are no hookups. Set in a remote, forested area—often within Medicine Bow National Forest—campers enjoy solitude, sweeping mountain views, and access to nearby trails like the CDT. Ideal for experienced, self-sufficient campers seeking a rugged, peaceful escape. Best visited from late June to September when roads are dry and snow-free.

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.
