Out there

This has to be one of the more scenic camp spots in Colorado. Located above tree line, spots are dispersed and spread out all around the valley. If you are looking for a spot deep in the wilderness, no where near town, you found it. The roads leading out to here are not for the faint of heart and should not be attempted in anything smaller than an SUV. We saw multiple cars with flats on the way up and down. 

That being said, Paradise Divide is truly beautiful and this is a great area to spend a few nights. Go during a new moon and you will see the sky like you never have before. Like a mentioned before, these are dispersed with no facilities or amenities. Site are spread out, FF/FS and are not marked. Each spot ranges in size. Pack it in, Pack it out. 

During the holidays this area can get very busy and spots will go really quick. 4th of July weekend was packed up here.
