Red Bridge Campground
Red Bridge Campground
Red Bridge Campground is a small, rustic BLM campground with 7 first-come, first-served sites located directly on the Lake Fork of the Gunnison River, offering direct public fishing access and scenic views along the Silver Thread National Scenic Byway.
Each site includes a parking spur, fire ring, and picnic table, with one ADA-accessible vault toilet available; however, no potable water is provided, so visitors must bring their own drinking water.
The remote location 21 miles north of Lake City on County Road 25 makes it ideal for anglers and campers seeking a quiet, back-to-basics riverside experience at $10 per night.
