@@CampgroundRecon That's cool. You still do a fantastic job of showing what the campgrounds look like. I am strongly considering going up to the Durango area soon and was wondering in general if I might find good dispersed camping and get some Verizon service.

I prefer a decommissioned campground, like this one, over a developed one any time! More likely to have campers who enjoy roughing it a bit with this type of campground, and in turn, less crowded and more remote.

Can't beat the price! I don't mind if I know ahead of arrival. I like to have a few extra supplies on the more remote ones.

We saw a lot of empty campsites in places like this that were off the beaten path. Most people won't take the risk of going this far without a guaranteed reservation

I do disperse camping, less people. Well Up until last year with the country in a tizzy, There were SO many people out there, and when they left, THEY LEFT SUCH A MESS! Trash in camp fires, trash in the woods. It made me SICK, Huge Campers blocking the roads. If you don't know how to CAMP stay off the Park Roads, PACK IT IN PACK IT OUT! RIGHT!! I pray for NO fires this year so we can have CAMP FIRES!!! Those of us WHO RESPECT THE EARTH!! Nice Video I have NOT been down That way IN A LONG TIME!!!

We have a video coming out Thursday of a beautiful campground. Problem is the trailhead across the road attracted 400-600 hikers every day during last summer. It will likely require reservations in the future because of all the trash and human waste left behind. Sad that people don’t know how to act outdoors.

Thanks for sharing as I am looking for sites around Durango. I’ll be out there in July. Did you encounter any other sites in San Juan NF?

I read that the USFS wanted to build a new campground near the trailhead a couple of miles to the west. No signs of it on satellite yet.

This is our kind of campground for sure!!! Not a lot of people not a lot of noise! All the reasons why we go camping. What lakes are around to fish at? Are there bathrooms there or no? Just curious. Thanks!

There is an older restroom behind site 8. No lakes in the immediate area, just Sig Creek and Hermosa Creek. It's quite and far enough away that it won't be crowded

Colorado is pretty dog friendly as long as they are well behaved and leashed when necessary
