StarView - Camp #5
A very good place to stay! Pablo was very helpful with sending details about the location, how to get in, and where to park. The site itself had a fantastic view of the mountains nearby and was sheltered some by trees.

Mount Blanca View Camp
Camp was hard to find and not at all accessible via 4x4. Once we found it, the spot was ok, but it had not been cleaned up since the last use as there was a small stove with trash in and around it.

Great spot but be prepared!
Beautiful location, site and each camp site absolutely needs GPS coordinants. We had torrential rain evening of arrival, dirt road was a river and mud slide off road parking impossible. We had an all wheel drive vehicle which was useless against the mud slides and no way to pull off side parking with high side road inclines and ground side ruts that’s became rushing streams both sides of road. 4 wheel drive a must in wet conditions or snow all wheel drive works but only if dry or very slight sprinkling rain. The sites themselves had trash, beer cans and bottles littered throughout with an old water heater dumped near one. We picked up what we could previous trash. Otherwise the site and host were great and Specifically knowing what we know now we would stay again specifically with 4 wheel drive vehicle.

Relaxing Weekend Getaway
The trail campsite was a bit difficult to find in the dark but the GPS coordinates were spot on and the site was far enough from the road to be quiet and private but close enough to make unloading the car fairly easy. The fragrant pines and pinions around the site provided excellent shade and lots of places to hang a hammock.

Mount Blanca View Stay
This site is very secluded than what I was expecting. The gps coordinates are crucial for finding each specific camping area. No parking spots or any designating sign to verify you're in the right spot, just the coordinates and some worn patches of land that indicate someone has slept here before. This definitely adds to the charm and seclusion of the site but also had me slightly uncertain if I was in the right area since I was the only car parked along the dirt road. After a while some more folks showed up which assured me I was correct. The camping areas aren't clearly marked (not a bad thing) as you're able to choose out of a few worn patches where you'd like to pitch your tent. Each site is spaced well away from each other but I was still able to hear a few people chatting now and again. The shrubbery and ponderosa trees are thick enough that you cannot see other campers (at least at site #1). Overall a very gorgeous and private spot. Had a very quiet and pleasant stay here for 1 night. If you're a little confused about the directions, don't be - if your gps coordinates are correct take a look around and it'll be clear you're in the right area if the land seems like it's been camped on before. Great spot
