Description: The Crags is among the more popular of the areas parks. With that in mind, you should not plan for solitude in these heavily used campgrounds and trails, however the impressive views and close proximity to so many great attractions make The Crags worth enduring the crowds – but arrive early because reservations are not accepted and trailer parking is limited at best.
Not far off the beaten path, the amount of people quickly diminishes to the point that we only saw a few die hard hikers, and even at one point we left them all behind.
This is an incredibly magnificent place to take photos of some very unique Colorado Mountain formations. It is well worth all the hassle that you’ll endure at the Campground.
