Notes :

The elevation is 10,300 feet.

. This campground is less developed than most, and primarily serves those who use it for an overnight stay before embarking on a backpack into the Pecos.

There is ample space for trailer/RV camping, but no dump station is available.

There is no potable water and no Campground Host.

The entire area is very scenic, and NM 475 is also designated as the Santa Fe Scenic Byway. Because of the scenic quality and the easy access from Santa Fe, the area is very busy, especially in the summer and in the fall aspen viewing season.
