Colorado is dying. Yes, I enjoyed my camping experience at South Meadows, although every time I camp in Colorado, I see less and less wildlife. National Forest Service does NOT seem to care about environmental devastation in Colorado. Pine Beetle has killed at least 100 times as many longer-needle pine trees, as the worst wildfire in Colorado history.

Dozens of species of wildlife are extinct or near extinction in Colorado national forests. I haven't seen a Western Jay Bird in Colorado in years. I have not seen a skunk, porcupine, coyote, mountain lion, bear, snake, bald eagle, golden eagle, fox, raccoon, marmot, pika, mouse, sandhill crane, pine marten, badger, bobcat, moose -- in a Colorado national forest -- in at least 10 years.

This was a beautiful wooded campground and we had an ideal campsite. We were welcomed by the friendly volunteer camp hosts, husband and wife. Could not have asked for better treatment. Enjoyed a hike in the adjoining meadow.

Huge campsites very well kept, friendly hosts and fellow campers. We experienced really nice weather in mid June. One of the largest campgrounds in the immediate area. Only six miles from town (Woodland Park} where they have anything you will need. Beautiful trees, singing birds, and wind in the branches make this one of our newest happy places. Only drawback is no showers, as they have in our #1 spot, Fallen Leaf Lake in CA.
