Dearhamer Campground is a Forest Service campground in the Sopris Ranger District of Colorado's White River National Forest, about 0.1 mile from Meredith campground. The two campsites sit right next to each other, with Meredith just steps away. The Forest Service charges a day-use fee of $9 per day per vehicle. That makes it a simple stop for a day at the park or a base for exploring the surrounding trails and climbing. Summer is the most comfortable time to visit. A nearby weather station in Meredith records typical July highs around 81°F with lows near 40°F, while June and September average highs in the mid-70s. Hikers can start with the Miller hike, about 0.2 mile away, or Miller Creek, about a mile off. Little Mattie Campground is roughly 4 miles away, and the climbing at Endless Wall lies about 4 miles from the campground.
