Meridian Campground
     

      The Meridian Campground is located about ten miles northwest of Bailey at an elevation of 9,000 feet. This campground has 18 campsites that are suitable for tents and small to medium sized RVs. Tent areas are not well defined but most are level. Some of the sites have long back-in parking that would be good for longer trailers or motorhomes. There are two vault toilets and a water hydrant. The campground is situated in an open stand of lodgepole pines. Campsites are well spaced but the lack of ground vegetation limits privacy. The road through the campground is dirt. Reservations are not accepted for sites in this campground.  Open May through October.
