Great BLM campground with views across the valley. Canyons are interesting and a nice hike (I don't climb but there are a lot of opportunities). Water is down the road and may not be available.
Such a beautiful hike! And east to hike if you have hiked more steep and rocky terrain.
This is the coolest place in colorado! It’s beautiful! My favorite place to visit while in south fork!!! The Indians thrived in this ancient volcanic eruption.
An absolute gem. Spaces 1 thru 4 are very roomy and far enough apart that you feel like you're alone in the wild. Not sure if water is actually available so come prepared.
Great place to hike with the family! It's the spot most requested by my children. We went two weeks ago again. Trails are fairly well marked but we did notice several of the confidence markers had been knocked over for some reason.
