Blue Creek 1 Campground

Blue Creek 1 is a remote backcountry campsite in Big Bend National Park's Chisos Mountains, accessible only by foot via a steep 5. 5-mile descent on the Blue Creek Trail from Laguna Meadow.

The tiny, private site accommodates only 4 people and 1 tent with good shade and views of Blue Creek Canyon, but has NO water available—hikers must carry a minimum of 1 gallon per person per day.

A backcountry permit is required and can be obtained online via Recreation. gov or in person at park visitor centers.
