Campground Overview

About Weir and Johnson Campground

Perched at a breathtaking 10,500-foot elevation, Weir and Johnson Campground offers an intimate high-altitude escape with stunning reservoir views, pristine spruce forests, and exceptional fishing opportunities.

This secluded campground features 11 well-maintained sites arranged in a single loop between Weir & Johnson and Sackett Reservoirs. Each site comes equipped with a picnic table and fire ring, perfect for enjoying meals amidst the crisp mountain air. The campground's compact size and lack of hookups create a rustic, back-to-nature experience that outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate.

Located in the Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre, and Gunnison National Forests, Weir and Johnson Campground sits about 17 miles south of Collbran, Colorado. The surrounding area is a paradise for hikers, with numerous trails winding through the diverse alpine landscape. Anglers will delight in the easy access to both reservoirs, known for their quality trout fishing.

The campground's high elevation provides a cool retreat during summer months, making it an ideal base for weekend getaways or extended vacations. Nature lovers will find ample opportunities for wildlife viewing and photography, with the area's abundant flora and fauna. However, campers should come prepared for rapidly changing mountain weather and bring plenty of mosquito repellent to fully enjoy this serene mountain setting.
