Conundrum Overnight Permits Available Soon, But Parking And Trail-Finding Still A Problem

High Country News/hcn.org

Overnight camping permits for the popular Conundrum Hot Springs will be available next week. The permits are for trips from August until the end of November.

Avalanches over the winter damaged the trailhead and parking lot, closing them for repairs until later this month.

 

 

The Conundrum Creek trail itself is open, but mostly covered in snow and debris from the avalanches.

The reservation system was put into place to limit overcrowding.

Campers can apply for permits starting June 15.
