“BACKPACKING CAMPSITE The Boulder Meadow campsites are located 1.5 mile (2.4 km) from the Basin trailhead via the Pinnacles trail. The first 1/2 mile (.8 km) is fairly steep, after which the trail becomes moderately difficult. The Pinnacles trail is well maintained and easy to follow all year. The pinnacles trail is the steeper, yet shorter route to the High Chisos backcountry and the South Rim area. There is some shade at this site. It is private with slight incline at the tent sites. This is a hike-in site. Parking is available at the Chisos Basin trailhead or the Chisos Basin Amphitheater.”
