Best Time to Camp at Moosehorn

Summer at Moosehorn brings a delightful alpine climate where daytime temperatures hover between 65-75°F—perfect for hiking and lake activities—before plunging to a refreshing 40-50°F once the sun dips behind the peaks. Don't let the summer season fool you; Mother Nature keeps her wild card close in these heights. Afternoon thunderstorms can roll in with little warning, and yes, even July might surprise you with a dusting of snow. Pack layers and rain gear—the mountain's moods are as changeable as they are magnificent.

About Moosehorn

Perched at an impressive 10,400 feet beside the crystalline waters of Moosehorn Lake, this high-altitude haven beckons adventurers seeking an authentic alpine camping experience. Wake to mirror-like reflections of towering peaks on the lake's surface, then cast a line for native trout or paddle across pristine waters in your canoe. Two beloved trails—the scenic Fehr Lake Trail and the challenging ascent to Bald Mountain—begin just steps from camp, promising breathtaking vistas and wildlife encounters. Each campsite comes thoughtfully equipped with sturdy picnic tables and campfire rings where stories flow as freely as the mountain air. Vault toilets ensure comfort without compromising the wilderness feel, and locally sourced firewood keeps evening gatherings warm as temperatures dip into the crisp 40s.
Moosehorn Campground supports various camping styles with its mix of tent, RV, and standard non-electric sites. Group sites are not mentioned.
