8 Comments on “Cibbets Flat”

  1. S Nystrom says:

    How easy/likely is it to get a first-come first-served site at this campground mid-week in early April (around the time of spring break)?

  2. Are dogs welcome?

  3. Elizabeth Warner says:

    Is this campground usually busy mid October? I’d like to camp here the 18th thru the 20th but I’ve never camped here before, so I’m not sure what the availability looks like mid-October.

    • Hi Elizabeth,
      There should be several campsites available at Cibbets Flat mid October (Oct 18-20). Should be a nice time of year up there – a little cool at night though. Have fun!

  4. What’s the weather typically like mid August? Scared I’ll be too hot!

    • Hey Jay,
      It’ll be warm out at Cibbets Flat, even though it’s at about 4,200 feet. Typically it will be mid 90s during the day and mid to high 60s at night.
