Hidden BLM gem. The accesroad is a bit of a hassle but nothing too serious. Managed to get a 25ft motorhome across, luckily the upcoming traffic was to nice to move and make a bit of passing space. Other than that, nothing extreme. Would avoid in the wet though. Campground is beautiful and even has multiple shaded sites, with a little creek running though. Of course the Gunnison River rushing along soothes the minds at a quiet night. Would've stayed longer if we had the time. Definitely recommended.
A great place to fish on the Gunny! Nice and secluded! Abundant trout. I recommend good tires and a little ground clearance before heading down the road.
Camp sites are spaced out well and sleeping next to the river is beautiful. Camped in 60/30 weather and didn't get too cold cause of the elevation. Getting here is about a 15 min drive on rocky back roads once you enter the recreation area. No four wheel drive needed. but the views are great along the way. Will be coming back if travels allow it!
Windy in the afternoon. HOT! Road narrows on a strap portion, just be mindful. Got to see a pod of river otters, just short of the campground.
Went to check it out for future camping. Beautiful place! Campground was partially flooded but still has lots of potential!
