Baca Campground

This camp was used as a CCC camp during the 1930's and has since been a popular place for hunters. It has spaces for camping, tents and small trailers and as no water is usually available, there is no charge for the use of this site.  There is a nearby spring that may sometimes provide water, but please remember to bring your own source.
