The highest campground on this list — 10,220 feet, up by Long Draw Reservoir near the crest of Cameron Pass. Nine walk-in, tent-only sites; no RVs.

9 tent sites, first-come, first-served, $25 per night, 8 people per site. Season runs July 1 – November 15. Potable water, vault toilets, picnic tables, tent pad and fire grate.

Getting there: Long Draw Road (FSR 156) is unpaved — 12 miles south off Highway 14 at about mile 51. The road season is July 1 – November 30, and deep snow often keeps it shut until around the Fourth of July.

Stoves and fire pits fueled by bottled gas or liquid fuel with an on/off valve are still allowed, set in an area cleared of flammable material for three feet around the device.
