About Campground

omanche Peak Wilderness, named for its prominent 12,702 foot peak, was added to the National Wilderness Preservation System by the United States Congress in 1980. Elevations within the Comanche Peak Wilderness range from 8,000 to 12,702 feet.

Located within the Roosevelt National Forest, this 66,791 acre wilderness area features lodgepole pine, ponderosa pine and spruce-fir forests below expanses of alpine tundra. Many scenic trails provide access to the area that borders the north and east sides of Rocky Mountain National Park.

Camping and campfires are prohibited within 200’ feet (or more if posted) of all lakes, streams and trails to protect water quality, sensitive vegetation and to help assure solitude. Thin soils and mountain vegetation are easily damaged by fire and fires scar rocks and soil. Use a stove, a fire pan or an existing fire ring when and where fires are allowed.

There is an old copper mine nearby that mountain lions use as a den. I used to come here often to camp but over the last couple years I have caught several photos of mountain lions in that area with my game camera. The camp ground is not that good anyway

The mountain lions are still around. Had a terrible night. You have been warmed.

Love this spot. There are about 2-3 campsites. The one at top of hill/road is large group site. Another has awesome rock out walls as background for firepit and camp area. Lots of short little walks and rocks to climb on. Easy drive to red feather, lost lake, Creedmore lakes, etc. Never busy. We rarely see anyone.

Nice site without any other people. Would have given 5 star if we weren't hearing the mountain lions after dark, and having to keep the dog in the camper.
