We have seen people camp at Silver Dollar but with no trees and no campfires I could see it getting very cold very fast and like above, being caught in the late afternoon storms would be tragic. I have been camping these lakes for over 25 years, there is just no place like it. <br /><br />If you want to have the campfire and stay close, about half a mile prior to the trail head there is a camp ground + fee and firewood collection is cake up in the old campground area (past the trail head)fallen trees and old firewood caches. I found the best time (lack of crowds) very early summer and later on before it snows.<br /><br />Be careful because the temp can drop on a dime! I have been at the camp grounds having long evening chats with friends, sitting around in shorts stand up to walk away from the fire and Bam its 29 degrees.<br /><br />Have fun!Cycotekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17906581293887890911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717214275439167841.post-73095186650713100442010-07-27T14:04:24.646-06:002010-07-27T14:04:24.646-06:00Do you know if you can disburse camp anywhere up t...Do you know if you can disburse camp anywhere up there?
