Open only from May to September when there’s enough warmth to melt away the snow, this tiny campground offers three campsites large enough for trailers up to 22 feet in length. There is fishing in the Rio Hondo, and the Yorba Canyon Trail #61 is also nearby.
This campground is mostly used by hikers traveling through Wheeler Park Wilderness and Columbine-Hondo Wilderness.
