Location Information
Ramsey Vista Campground, located near the end of Carr Canyon Road above the "Reef" rock formation in the Huachuca Mountains, features 8 single unit sites with tables, fire rings, tent pads, toilets and garbage bins. You'll have a great view of Ramsey Peak with its wedding cake stack of sheer white cliffs from just about any campsite in this cool mountain campground. Campsites are spread through a stand of medium sized ponderosa pines at the end of the road that once brought miners and equipment to the area of the historic Reef mine and townsite. Two major trails leave from the campground to connect to a broader network of trails which lead to some of the most beautiful destinations in the Huachucas. Comfort Spring Trail #109 drops off the campground ridge, first into Carr Canyon and then into Ramsey Canyon known for its lush streamside vegetation and diverse bird population. Carr Peak Trail #107 (not recommended for horses) goes to Carr Peak and the Crest Trail #103. The campground has 8 single-unit sites with tables, fire rings, tent pads, toilets, garbage bins, and magnificent views in a cool mountain setting. Pack and saddle stock are not permitted in the campground. Pets must be leashed at all times. There is a fee for overnight use.
