Trappers Lake / Horse Thief Campground
The Horse Thief Campground at Trappers Lake has 5 campsites. It is on the right side of the road as you travel south from the Trappers Lake Outlet area. The campground is dedicated to those with stock at the seven campsites. All sites have a corral. We ask that non-stock campers do not use this campground. Trappers Lake and area adjacent to the campground is within Flat Tops Wilderness, where regulations apply.
