About
US Forest Service campground. Brady's Camp is a beautiful, lush, high elevation campground, in a red fir forest. There is a small creek that runs past the sites. It is one of two free campgrounds on the Mt. Hough Ranger District. It is one of the few campgrounds on the Mt. Hough Ranger District that allows OHV trail access directly from the campground. There are 6 campsites, which are first-come, first-serve with no reservations. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, and a bear resistant food locker. This campground is popular during deer hunting season. This campground is at approximately 7400 feet in elevation so snow lingers late in the spring and it can close early in the fall due to weather. Pack out what you pack in. Not reservable through Recreation.gov, so plan on first-come, first-served; check with the ranger district for current conditions and fees.
