Staunton State Park - Aspen in CO -- Campground & RV Camping in Colorado

Campground loop in Staunton State Park, a 3,988-acre mountain park with elevation ranging from 8,100 to over 10,000 feet. Upper montane forest of aspen, ponderosa pine, and Douglas fir. Dramatic Pikes Peak granite formations including Lions Head, Chimney Rock, and Staunton Rocks. Twenty-five campsites available for reservation, with multiple streams and 37 miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. Elk, martenss, and osprey resident.

The road in has not been measured -- unknown, not bad. Flat ground is scarce -- under a tenth of the terrain within a few hundred yards is level.

Black Mountain stands 2,349 ft above the site, 2.5 miles northwest. Jones Creek runs 0.7 mi off. Night skies measure Bortle 3 -- a dark rural sky. The nearest town, Aspen Park, is 5.0 mi off.
