Beaver Meadows Trail

Within a mile of the trailhead, a scenic meadow takes form with beaver ponds dotting the area. Climbing slowly, you dart into the trees before coming upon another meadow. This is where the Resthouse Meadows Fire burned 1,076 acres in 1964. The Resthouse Meadows Fire is believed to have been caused by careless humans.

From Evergreen,just west of Denver, take the Upper Bear Creek Road for 10 miles to the Mount Evans State Wildlife Management Area. Travel another 5 miles to the Camp Rock State Campground.
