Mee Corner is a Bureau of Land Management campground in Colorado, within the Grand Junction Field Office. It sits among a cluster of other Mee campgrounds, with Mee 1 about 0.3 miles away and Mee 2 and Mee 3 within half a mile. The surrounding area also offers hiking and climbing, so it works well as a base for exploring the canyon country close by. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the nearby Fruita weather station show May highs around 78°F and October highs around 69°F, while July averages climb to about 95°F. The Mee Canyon Trail starts less than a mile away, and the Mouth of Mee Canyon Area climbing spot is about 0.9 miles off. The Rabbit Valley 8 Trail is roughly 1.6 miles away, and Reed Wash, a canoeing spot, lies about 8.6 miles from the campground.
