8000-foot elevation. 18 campsites at the top of Kings HIll Pass on US 89. In the summer, this is the hub of huge networks of mountain bike trails. If that's a little ambitious for you, try driving up Porphyry Peak to check out the view from the manned fire tower at the top. In the winter, this becomes a playground for downhill skiers, snowmobilers, and cross-country skiers, who visit the Showdown Winter Recreation Area or the nearby Silvercrest Winter Recreation Area.
Bears may frequent the area; keep all food out of sight in approved containers and remove all food from area after eating. Mandatory food storage is required.
From Neihart, go about 8 miles south on US 89.
Great overnight. 2 pull through spots so no disconnect. Quiet night even with road nearby. Except for host, we were the only camper.
Two chemical toilets and two water points. Water points are good open spigots with no hose thread, so fresh water fill is container only.
