Very peaceful place. Campsites are very far apart. It is a tough, up and down, two mile hike to get here from the tram. Water is available from a spring that is not always guaranteed to be flowing. You are up high at 9000 feet and storms can be sudden during the monsoon season. Pit toilets are nice but spread far apart. Make sure to speak to the park ranger and get a permit before venturing...

This camp ground gives you a nice little view of the meadow that is surrounded by towering trees, giving the great feel of truly being in the deep woods. Water source and toilets are also not too far from the camp ground. If you stand in the middle of the meadow, you can see the top of the peak. The spring time is beautiful and better for newer hikers as the winter and snow can add an aspect of di...

Water source and toilets are also not too far from the camp ground. If you stand in the middle of the meadow, you can see the top of the peak. The spring time is beautiful and better for newer hikers as the winter and snow can add an aspect of difficulty with making sure you stay on the trail and having the right gear to stay warm.

We camped on Oct 18 permit required both for camp and stove, nice hike in and experience, there were other hikers and campers around that was nice, note theres only one water faucet around at the entry. A bit hard to find the campsites, and it got freezing cold at night.

Camped here over the weekend as a part of a training hike for a Philmont trek. It is a hard hike with just about 4,000 ft of elevation gain. The campsites are not really conducive to large group camping as they terrain is very rough, but we did find a couple close together that worked for our group of 17 backpackers.
