Looking for a tent only site to pitch it for a while and soak in the lush forests, abundant wildlife, and high elevation nature vibes of Sugarite Canyon?
Try Soda Pocket Campground. It's perfect for hikers wanting to explore the area on foot with trailheads right at its doorstep. With a name like Soda Pocket, you best be stocking the cooler with some tasty beverages and setting yourself up for a chillaxing session with Mother Nature. Why? Because you deserve it.
Soda Pocket has great views of Little Horse Mesa! The sites aren't quite as private as other places, but camping Sun-Wed doesn't usually leave a ton of people to be concerned with! Site 24 is before the campground entrance and is by far the most secluded. There are vault toilets (no running water, although there is a bath house by the visitor center) and very friendly camp hosts. There are 3 trail heads within walking distance of the campground and plenty more trails in the canyon. We really loved the Wapiti trail which had wild raspberries, fantastic views of the canyon & lake (and also a bear on the trail!) There's a lot of history in this old mining town-see the museum at the visitor's center! Also, only 17 miles to Trinidad, Co.
