About this campsite

Overview

Price Canyon Recreation Area offers visitors a chance to enjoy cooler temperatures and the shade of large ponderosa pine trees during the summer. The recreation area is located on a ridge high above Price Canyon.

Recreation

The Bristlecone Ridge trail (3.1 miles starting in the north campground loop) allows visitors to hike through the burned bristlecone forest. Post-fire, these open grasslands fill with wildflowers in the summer months. There are two bouldering areas on the way up to the campground, and day use areas at each campground.

Facilities

The north campground loop access two group sites and the south loop has twelve individual sites. Both loops have vault toilets, and all campsites have picnic tables, fire rings, and flat areas for tents. Many are shaded by ponderosa pines.

Natural Features

Situated at an elevation of 7,500 feet, the recreation area is forested with ponderosa pines and shrubs. The 2021 Bear Fire burned most of the bristlecone pines in the forest, but the ridge still offers scenic views and some portions of the forest are intact.
