Best Time to Camp at Old Folks Flat

Experience the refreshing mountain climate where crisp, cool air greets you even on summer's warmest days, thanks to the campground's lofty elevation. Peak season brings perfect conditions for outdoor adventures with pleasantly mild temperatures and star-filled nights that require a cozy sleeping bag. As autumn arrives, prepare for cooler evenings that enhance campfire gatherings. Winter transforms the landscape into a snow-covered wonderland, bringing frigid temperatures that close the campground but create stunning scenery for those who venture nearby.
