PSA for those thinking about a trip. The gates are still closed and the sign says enter at your own risk. "Aerial application by helicopter of the herbicide Rejuvra will target over 5,700 acres on a landscape that has been the focus of multiple years’ worth of treatment."

Per Sage Eddie: the majority of this area is on private property. Only the far eastern boulders are on public property and these can be approached from Hyndes Lodge where you will need a parking permit. Wyoming has a nice website showing property ownership, remember it is illegal to cross parcels at the corners....

Description
Campjack Rocks are obscure but interesting! This crag is on Happy Jack Road, near Curt Gowdy State Park (about midway between Cheyenne and Laramie).
It is seldom visited and you can expect a quiet day - no trails and no crowds.There are about 7 or 8 established routes here, with room for a few more. Additionally there are probably about 40 or 50 established boulder problems.
The stone is excellent - typically featured and finegrained in a manner somewhat out of the ordinary for Vedauwoo.

Getting There
Take Happy Jack Road from either Cheyenne or Laramie to about mile marker 23, near the entrance to Curt Gowdy State Park. Look for a road going north to "North Crow Reservoir" (obvious and well marked with a big sign). Follow this about a mile north until you cross a small creek. Park at the two blue poles just past the creek.
