Engineer Pass Campground
Engineer Pass Campground
Engineer Pass Campground is a dispersed camping area located along Henson Creek in the San Juan Mountains, offering spacious sites suitable for multiple vehicles and tents with access to clear, fast-flowing water and mountain views.
The site requires a high-clearance 4WD vehicle to access via the rugged Engineer Pass road (23. 6 miles, 3-4 hours from Ouray), and operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no services available.
Campers should pack in all supplies and follow Leave No Trace principles, with a 14-day camping limit and requirement to camp at least 100 feet from water sources.
