We saw several rocky mountain wildlife in or near camp. The views were most excellent and the sites were very nice. They have actual pads for tens so your tent doesn't end up on a steep slope. There are trails and interesting things to see nearby - like the Cabin Creek Hydroelectric plant. We plan to go again.

Despite a rainy, wet and cold camping trip, our family loved Guanella Pass Campground. We had spot 9, which was close enough to the parking that hauling things back to the car at night was not a pain, but was far enough away that car noise was not an issue. The sounds of the river put us to sleep each night and we woke to birdsong in the morning. No bear lockers, but again, you are close enough to your car to keep food safe. The fire ring and tent pad were clean and well-maintained.
