Ousel Lake Campsite

Ouzel Lake Campsite is a single backcountry site located in Rocky Mountain National Park at 10,020 feet elevation, situated in a spruce/fir forest on the northeast slope of Copeland Mountain. The site is 4.

9 miles from Wild Basin Trailhead (4-5 hours hiking with 1,520 feet elevation gain) and offers water access from inlet/outlet streams, though campfires are prohibited and bear-resistant food storage is required April-October.

The campsite has no privy facilities and requires careful camping practices away from standing dead trees, making it suitable for experienced backcountry users seeking a remote alpine experience.
