Hey all,

Got a late jump on it and can't get a campsite anywhere near Estes for this coming weekend, the 12th and 13th. Anyone have a backyard or secret patch of grass they'd be willing to let my climbing partner and I set up on? Will gladly trade beers/dinners for the hospitality. Interested parties shoot me a direct message. Thanks in advance for any possible leads!

If you drive past Lumpy Ridge away from Estes for about 5 miles there is a turnout below the bottom of the switchbacks in Glen Haven. it is beneath a power pole with 3 transformers. I see people car camp there all the time. NO CAMPFIRES! There is room for maybe 2 tents but no water nearby. There is a General Store about a mile father down the road.

You can try the USFS camps along Hwy 7 between Allenspark and Estes. Mt Meeker campground, Olive Ridge campground and others along the road.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
