Best Time to Camp at Lost Creek Campground
Summer transforms Lost Creek into a hiker's paradise, with July through September bringing gloriously warm days averaging 67°F—perfect for exploring nearby trails and soaking in the mountain air. As evening falls, temperatures dip to a crisp 40°F, making that campfire glow even more inviting. Come October, winter begins its dramatic entrance, blanketing the landscape in heavy snow that persists through early spring, turning this corner of the park into a pristine wonderland accessible only to the most intrepid winter adventurers.
Warm July–Sept hiking weather and peak season, but heavy mosquitoes noted by many visitors.
Cooler temps and fewer insects in fall; quieter after peak season.
Campground generally closed through spring due to snow; opens in early July.
Typically closed in winter; opens early July after snow removal.
Planning Tips
- Peak Season: July to September, during the drier and warmer months.. Book 2-3 months ahead.
- Operating Season: Typically opens early July and closes mid-October, though exact dates may vary based on snow removal and weather conditions.
- Current Alerts: East Rim Drive and parts of Cleetwood Trail are currently closed due to hazardous conditions, including rock slides and fire damage.
