Roosevelt National Forest Peaceful Valley Road Dispersed Sites
Dispersed Camping
These well-used dispersed sites line Middle Boulder Creek along Forest Road 128, with most spots offering creek access and established fire rings. Sites range from creek-side spots that fit single vehicles to larger clearings that can handle small groups. The creek provides water for filtering, and the area stays busy during summer weekends with Front Range escapees. Fire restrictions typically kick in by midsummer.
The road is maintained gravel suitable for any vehicle, though sites fill early on Friday afternoons. Popular with climbers heading to nearby crags and folks looking to escape Denver heat. Sites get picked over early in the day during peak season.
