Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.
Off-leash friendly
Pets can be off-leash at this Hipcamp.
Unbelievable mountain views in an area of open range. This property is in open range, but far from the traffic or other disturbances, it is within a short distance from Antero, Spinney and 11 Mile reservoirs, as well as National Forests.

Ded Tick Ranch SOUTH
The campsite is exactly as advertised. We truck bed camped for a night prior to hiking a collegiate peak 14er. Good spot.

Soonzapunk Ranch
Beautiful private and peaceful land
This camp site was private a little difficult to find because one of the side streets isn’t labeled but it is private no trees and neighbors seemed upset when we asked them if we were in the right area she made sure to let us know they weren’t happy to have people camping next door but we weren’t loud we were respectful while we were there. This land was peaceful. Some signage would be helpful to locate the property. But I would recommend if you are looking for complete privacy. We rented both lands to have more privacy.

Views for Days
I had the best night camping at Soonzapunk in my van. Even without real roads to get to the land for the last 1/2 mile or so, it was so easy to find, with fun street signs standing all alone in the middle of wide open spaces. It was a little windy, but I was able to start a campfire safely and with no problem. It was absolutely silent, with gorgeous stars and an incredible sunrise. I felt safe, solitary and at peace. The land was clear and very clean, easy to access and well located just outside of Fairplay. I slept like a baby!

Beautiful Colorado Prairie
Great communication and the site is exactly as described. Easy to find with descriptions and GPS. The dirt road was no problem at all. The site itself comes with privacy and a view over the distant mountains. Intense night sky on clear nights. On windy days of course you’d have less protection from the winds (factor for tents). I’d choose the site again when in the area.

Ded Tick Ranch NORTH
Second time back, still awesome
This was my second time back to ded tick and once again, it was awesome. Ded Tick is great if you want QUIET, and big sky, all about two hours away from downtown Denver. This would also be a great place for gravel biking. Some notes for new campers.... When you take county rd 53, you'll come up to an almost 45 degree 'fork' with a sign for (I believe) Shawnee trail. Go RIGHT to stay on 53. Both ded tick lots are separated from the road by drainage ditches. If you've never come, and plan to bring either a trailer or car, arrive when it's still light so that you can find an ideal spot to drive onto the lot. The simplest is to enter Ded Tick South via it's "driveway", and then drive through the lots until you get to North. The "driveway" is found by driving PAST Athapascan rd for about 100 feet, you will see on the left what looks like a trail into the lot, there is no culvert at this point. Finally, t-mobile coverage was fair. Last time I visited, I had AT&T, and coverage was very good.

The road was a bit bumpy, but it was a nice quite place to stay.
