Hikers and mountain bikers self-sufficient enough to treat their own water and pack everything in and out. The Hermosa Creek Trail starts 2 miles up the road, catch-and-release fishing in the East Fork is right there, and the widely spaced sites mean real solitude if the gate's o
The site is currently marked closed, and reviews back it up: a decommissioned host, no confirmed potable water, unkempt vault toilets, and cow patties across the grounds. Durango is 39 miles away if you need anything. Come fully self-sufficient or don't come.

Summer brings daytime highs around 60–75°F and nighttime lows in the mid-30s to mid-40s. It's the most reliable season for access and the warmest weather you'll get at this elevation. The south-facing slope maximizes sun exposure, which is welcome on cool mornings but can feel intense by midday. Afternoon thunderstorms are common from July through early September, so start hikes early. Early spring and late fall can bring snow, making the dirt access road difficult or impassable.
Open May–Sept; summer temps 60–75°F, best access to trails and fishing.
