Alta Lakes Campground (Dispersed) - Norwood RD

Great views, but hard to get to at the moment road is a bit rough and would not recommend going on unless you have decent ground clearance 7" or so. Last mile is the tricky part. But also currently there are two large snow drifts blocking the way into the camp site rite at the sign for it. There is also a down tree making it nearly impossible to drive to the other sites, and porta John's are knocked over.

Very nice place to visit, the campsites are clean and well apart from other sites. Caught many 10" Trout. The night sky is incredibly clear at 11,300ft - you'll feel as though you can reach out and grab a star. Any vehicle can make it up but of course it is better to have AWD or 4WD as mentioned by other reviewers. There are remnants of old communities on your drive up, a great opportunity to take a little break and snap some pictures!

This campground is amazing but if your coming here be prepared for a 30-45 min drive up the mountain. Definitely requires 4WD and a high clearance vehicle. There’s some campsites along the road up but many were closed.

This is not a worthwhile stop for hiking. It's just primitive campsites and small mud-bottom lakes. Our dogs kept finding dead fish to roll around in. We left after walking around the lakes in less than 20 minutes. There were mosquitoes and lots of big trucks and dirt bikes to watch out for. The road is a mess, too... Narrow and rocky
