We are only going to 2 days of Rockygrass so we're gonna camp in the National Forest.  Any suggestions on closest camping to the fest?

I'm not an expert on the area since we usually do day trips that way, but the Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests are just along Hwy 7 and there are some campgrounds that way.

The second link has a map that shows how far a lot of the site are from Lyons. 

I also think there are some private campgrounds near Estes that you could probably make reservations at.  Good luck - hopefully someone else knows the area better.

Thank you for your comment

I found a place called "Johnny's Park" which is off rd 47.  Just 10-15 miles NW of Lyons.  Thanks to the folks at Planet Bluegrass, this will def work.  Y'all rock!!

See you all bright and early Friday.  PEACE!  Wave
