Some mention
"Altamont Campground is highly rated for its scenic beauty, spacious group site, and well-maintained amenities. Visitors have described it as 'the greatest family reunion spot in the canyon,' and found the pavilion and fire pit ideal for gatherings. However, some noted road noise and the need for better maintenance of flush toilets."

Best Time to Camp at Altamont
Summer arrives as a gentle friend at Altamont, bringing pleasantly mild to warm days perfect for outdoor celebrations and mountain exploration. The high elevation ensures cool, refreshing evenings even during July's peak warmth. While the nearby scenic byway occasionally reminds visitors of civilization's proximity, the sounds of rustling aspen leaves and mountain breezes quickly restore the wilderness ambiance. Winter transforms this mountain sanctuary into a snow-laden wonderland, with significant snowfall and freezing temperatures creating a dramatically different but equally beautiful landscape.
Open and most popular June–Sept; peak season, wildflowers and ideal hiking weather.
Autumn brings spectacular foliage though season is shorter and accessibility may be reduced.
Site opens June 6; spring access/conditions are not part of regular season.
Campground is closed outside its June 6–Sept 20 operating window.
