Big Lake is located in a very scenic large meadow at an elevation of over 9,300 feet. Most dispersed camp sites are found near aspen and conifer trees for shade. There is a vault restroom near the reservoir north of Forest Road 080. Big Lake can be a great fishing opportunity, plus there is wildlife viewing, hiking, hunting, and OHV riding on designated routes. Please pack-out what you pack-in. Camping stay limit is 16 days.
