The Slate River Valley offers breathtaking mountain and river views along with many different recreation options along its length. It is frequented in the summer by anglers, mountain bikers, hikers and nature lovers.

Slate Creek dispersed sites are accessed via a narrow gravel road past the O Be Joyful Campground. This road is a single lane at times with limited turn off, against a drop-off. There are on guardrails on this road. Please use caution when driving, especially during peak times.

It is recommend that all vehicles greater than 35-40 ft. do not attempt to drive beyond Musician's Camp (approx 6 miles from Gothic Road) due to lack of turn around space, rough roads, and/or lack of sites with adequate parking for large vehicles.

Musician's camp is divided into three sections. First there is a spur with sites 1-3, which can accommodate tents and small rigs. The second spur has an full sun RV section with sites 4-13 and then a tent only section in the trees with sites 14-17. There are vault toilets in the center of this area.

Site 5 is suited for any size rig. It is a back-in site and is in full sun. It would work for a solar rig or one using Starlink. The site is level, but is not private, with a neighbor on both sides.

The area has amazing views, however, the sites are very close together like in an RV park, removing a star.

There is no cellular connection in the Slate River Valley.

Stayed 9/16 - 9/18/2019 - access road was recently graded and was very smooth. Stayed right on the river and there were only 2 or 3 other people staying in the area, but at a great distance, so very private. According to someone we spoke with, the pit toilet (which was nice) was added within the past year as historically the area had porta-potties. Great location with easy access to Crested Butte (15 minute drive). Ranger stopped by one day and we saw him another day driving through and checking things out. Area was spotless which was amazing as it looks like it gets heavy use in season.
