BLODGETT DISPERSED CAMPGROUND: THE HOLY CROSS WILDERNESS

There will be a hike posted soon.

Campers and Hikers,
Please the read the TERMS OF SERVICE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY
~https://help.meetup.com/hc/en-us/articles/360027447252-Terms-of-Service
~Camping: ~You do not have to camp on the days I have scheduled. Come and leave whenever you want to. I usually start camping sometime on Thursday and stay until Saturday evening. This way those coming up later in the week or the weekend will have a place to camp with those who are already there.
~ I always do my best to find dispersed camping sites near towns for several reasons and purposes. In case of an emergency, First Response Teams will be able to get to an injured person a bit sooner and safer.
~ Smoking anything around a campfire pretty much offends most everyone
~ PLEASE, NO GENERATORS, Small Trailers and Pop Tops are fine.
~Dispersed camping is not about having amenities. It doesn’t involve a camp host or reservations. Dispersed camping is best defined as free camping.
~be sure to bring a couple bundles of wood
~Fishing: You will need to purchase a Colorado Fishing License. I have no idea how much they cost, the type of bait you’ll need to use, types of fish or if HOMESTAKE CREEK is catch and release.
~HIKING: There are also a few really nice hikes up the road (a few miles) from where we’ll be camping.
