Blodgett Campground

Absolutely beautiful campground! Spent 6 nights here (free) in late April and were mostly alone. Only a few established sites, no amenities, no cell service. Close to Minturn, Red Cliff, Avon, Vale.

Easy parking for our van + car hauler, dirt road is bumpy but short. Very muddy. See pictured sign; motorized boats not permitted. Unfortunately, a LOT of garbage, but we cleaned up as much as we could find.

Gorgeous site right off the Top of the Rockies National Scenic Byway. Incredible stars backed by sounds of critters chirping away at night put us right to sleep. And what a view of the mountains at dusk & in the morning! Highly recommended to all

Awesome place to camp. Great views and easy for a 20 foot trailer to fit.

A rare case of nobody else being at a camp area. Free camping and with no one else around it was a great atmosphere 😁! Although later in the evening it was raining and I was in my car eating honey roasted peanuts and I heard a thump on my door, got out wondering who would hit my door when no one else was there, and it was a freaking bear!

Stumbled upon this on accident because all the other camps sites weren’t open for the season yet. Great spring spot.

Arrive by mid afternoon to pick your spot at the far end from the entrance. This campground fills up, and has only 10 or 12 spaces. There's lots more camping up the road across the bridge
