Enjoy world class hiking, mountain biking, kayaking, rafting, fishing, and 4x4 access in summer, and snowshoeing and backcountry skiing in winter. Located just 2 miles from Alma, CO the highest town in the North America (Highest record temperature of 78 deg F) The property offers easy access to some of Colorado’s most iconic 14ers, including Mt.

Each 2-person tent includes a wood stove and propane heater (firewood and propane included), a queen memory foam bed with bedding, a cook stove with supplies, and a cooler. Water is delivered to each site. Cassette toilets are provided in each tent during the winter season. Due to fire restrictions each Glamping Site has a propane fire pit.
