The La Plata Canyon was beautiful as always. The pit toilets and campsites at Snowslide were mostly clean. However, the people need some instruction in camping etiquette and fire safety.

We were the only people there besides the host. Right next to creek, but we stayed across the street in the woods. Pay in cash. The fees to pay with the QR code are ridiculous.
