About Big Meadows Campground

Big Meadows is located in the San Juan Mountains in south-central Colorado. The campground is lightly wooded with spruce trees, creating a beautiful meadow atmosphere. As a sub-alpine region, the campground gets more snow melt and rainfall than the opposite side of the lake, resulting in plentiful wildflowers and aspens surrounding the campsites.

Snowdrift PeakSnowdrift Peak is the beautifully snow-bound peak straddling the west side of the Continental Divide to the northwest of Flattop Mountain in Rocky Mountain National Park. It is most easily accessed via the Flattop Mountain Trail, but it is still a very remote peak. This is certainly one of the most popular trails in the park, and it will be very crowded.
