About Camp Hale Memorial

Camp Hale Memorial Campground sits at an elevation of 9.2 ft, offering guests a wonderful setting for recreation and relaxation. Camp Hale is historic because the 10th Mountain Division, an unit of 15,000 men, trained here in mountaineering and skiing techniques during WWII. Some saw combat in Italy during the war. Most of the buildings have been torn down, but foundations and other "footprints" remain. The 99th Infantry Battalion (Viking Battalion) also trained at Camp Hale. There are interpretive signs along US Rt. 24, explaining the history and accomplishments of Camp Hale.

The campground has a paved road so bike riding is easy for the kids. Exploring Camp Hale and its history is fun. We hiked the abandoned railroad tunnel under Tennessee Pass, which was a different kind of hike. Great trails, including the Colorado Trail a close by.

The campsite is very nice. The pit/vault toilets were clean and stocked. Having potable water at the campground would be a HUGE benefit. Everything else was great.

Nice campground with lots of recreational opportunities in the area. Enjoyed hiking to Missouri Lakes and also hiking on the Cross Creek Trail. Seems to be no maintenance to the roads in Camp Hale. Since it became a National Monument no improvements have been made. Disappointing, but still a great area to visit.
