About This Location
Experience true wilderness at the Fitton Guard Station, a remote cabin retreat in the Colorado Rockies accessible only by OHV, foot, or horseback.
Nestled in a high-elevation meadow at 10,600 feet along Burro Creek, the Fitton Guard Station offers a unique, off-the-grid escape in the heart of the Rocky Mountains. This remote site is a sanctuary for those looking to disconnect, as it is strictly accessible via 50-inch width OHV trails, hiking, or horseback riding. Because standard passenger vehicles cannot reach the cabin, visitors are treated to an exceptionally quiet and secluded mountain environment that feels worlds away from civilization.
The cabin serves as a rustic basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts eager to explore the surrounding trails. Guests can enjoy immediate access to hiking and biking paths, as well as opportunities for fishing in the nearby creek. While the facility provides a primitive experience without modern hookups, it is equipped with essential outdoor staples including fire rings for evening campfires. Firewood is available, making it easier to settle in after a day of backcountry adventure.
This location is best suited for experienced adventurers, backcountry campers, and those comfortable with navigating rugged terrain. It is an ideal destination for individuals or small groups looking to immerse themselves in nature, whether they are arriving by OHV or trekking in on foot. With year-round availability, it offers a distinct seasonal experience for those prepared for high-altitude mountain conditions.
