This live camera looks out over a campground in Fairplay, a small town in the high valleys of central Colorado. Check it to see current conditions at about 3,000 metres before you plan a drive or a hike into the Rockies.

About Fairplay

Fairplay is the seat of Park County, set in South Park, a broad high valley ringed by the Mining Mountains and the Front Range. The town grew up during the Colorado gold rush and still keeps its historic character, with old wooden storefronts and a relaxed pace. The surrounding country is open grassland, pine forest and rocky peaks, and the air is thin and dry compared with lower elevations.

What the camera shows

The view is framed by the title as a campground in the Rockies, so you can expect a mountain setting with trees, open sky and changing light. Conditions are most interesting in the morning, when clouds often start to build over the peaks, and in late afternoon, when thunderstorms are common in summer. Winter brings snow and clear, cold days. Depending on the view, you may see wildlife or the movement of weather across the valley.

Planning a visit

Summers are warm during the day and cool at night, with a real chance of afternoon storms from July to August. Winters are cold and snowy, which suits skiing nearby. Nearby camera locations include Leadville, Breckenridge, Keystone and another Breckenridge view, which help you compare conditions across the region before you travel.
