The campground is situated in a lodgepole pine forest, where summer grasses and wildflowers are plentiful. During the fall, wild huckleberries can be found in abundance throughout the campground.
Recreation: Summit View sits within the Great Western Trail corridor, which offers excellent hiking, biking, horseback riding and off-road vehicle riding opportunities. The Harrington Peak trail, a 3.5-mile one-way trail to the summit, begins within the campground.
