This is such a beautiful campground! The food prep area has a bear box to store your food and other scented items. There was a baggy of freebies for other backpackers that someone had left as a kind gesture. We saw a lot of goats and a mule deer. The goats were definitely looking for salt and waiting for us in the morning to go pee. 😅 I'm guessing they were bummed we made the trek to the toilet. The views were breathtaking. We stayed in the campsite closest to the food prep area and I think it had the best view.

A wonderful campground with the basics: pit toilet, food prep area and a bear storage food box. The cliff location have dramatic views of the valleys below, and notably this is far enough away from the Chalet that you won't hear any of their hustle and bustle. Notably at the time of this review they are still undergoing construction and dust they were will be helicopter transport of construction materials during normal work hours.

Definitely go through Gunsight Pass if you can, we had initially planned on going up and down the Sperry trail but were advised to go through Gunsight Pass and down Sperry trail and that was great. It's a long first day though if you don't have a reservation at Lake Ellen Wilson or Gunsight Lake. Tons of goats and marmots! Watch out for them trying to chew your gear! A marmot got a bit of my boot... Fresh water can be found at the Chalet dining hall on a faucet to the left of the entrance, and they have food and drinks depending on when you are there
