Colossal Cave Campground??????

Post by Trew »

I keep calling the Colossal Cave Mountain park number (520-647-7121) but the voice box isn't working and no one answers the phone. Are they closed? Opened for camping and receiving/holding resupply boxes? Does anyone know something I don't know about Colossal Cave as a resupply point?

have you tried (520) 647-7275
that's what google shows, they answered for me

if the campground is a special number, maybe they can connect you or offer more info

The campground host let me and my cousin camp there for free when we were passing through. He saw our backpacks and said he lets those traveling by foot on the AZT stay for free.

Can't help you on the resupply info, sorry.

I sent stuff to the gift store there in 2010.

The bear went over the mountain to see what he could see.

I just called and everything is ok. I am going to spend 2 nights there and do the cave tour. Details all coming together.

I emailed them a couple of weeks ago. They are accepting resupply packages and holding them at the Colossal Cave gift shop (by the caves, not at the ranch). Looks like it's about a mile off trail, nw on the road at Mile 120.7 (mileage as per 2013/14 Data Book). Also the cafe next to the gift shop is open 7 days a week, or at least that's what I was told.

Take the cafe hours with a grain of salt . . .
