Pikes Peak - Crags Campground Question

Post by PattyCakes »

Quick question - Are there any road side camping spots along Crags Campground road? I'm planning on climbing Pikes Pk this summer and I'm hoping I don't have to pay the camping fee for Crags Campground. If there are camping spots, how many are there and how far are they from the TH? Thanks

There are some dispersed sites along the road. I don't recall how many exactly, maybe 4 or 5?

They are on the left side of the road after the Bible camp and not too far before Crags Campground.
