Every site here is listed for one vehicle. Agencies differ on whether a truck and the trailer it tows count as one or two, so this may not affect a fifth wheel — but it does decide whether a second car can come. Worth a call before you rely on it.

At 9,629 ft, expect nights below freezing well into June, water systems shut off outside a short summer window, and a long climb to get here. Nothing published says when it opens — call before you tow.
