U.S. Forest Service lists this as a developed campground. Expect marked sites, a fee station or a reservation, and the usual campground rules. The dispersed-camping freedom of the surrounding forest does not apply inside it. What changes is conditions — roads, gates, closures, fire rules. Check those with the unit before you commit to the drive.

The unit that manages Masons Draw Campground

Stay limits, road closures and fire restrictions at Masons Draw Campground are set by Manti-La Sal National Forest, not by the campsite — check there before you go.

Snow, and when this opens

The nearest automatic snow station is Lasal Mountain-Lower at 8,780 ft, about 4 miles away. It sits about 483 ft higher than this camp, so treat it as a guide rather than a reading for this spot. We do not repeat a depth here, because any number we stored would be stale by the time you read it — the station publishes today's.

Confidence
Likely — The record is good enough to put a pin on, but thin in places. Treat the details as a starting point, not gospel.
How it was placed
Developed FEE campground (not free) - review | auto:usfs-fee 2026-08-20: US Forest Service developed campground, agency coordinates, agency states a fee. No dollar amount in the agency record -- expect a charge and confirm the current rate before you go. Not field-verified. | Fee 2026-08-22: $10.00 per night per campsite. The Manti-La Sal page adds that there are only five sites and that they are all first come / first serve -- "Mason Draw Campground offers 5 first come/first serve campsites that are available for $10/night" -- so there is nothing to reserve, and there is no recreation.gov listing. The Forest Service spells it "Mason Draw" on its website while our pin and its own recreation-site database read "Masons Draw".

Field check
On the agency's books. The land manager inventoried this site, so its existence is not in question — current conditions are. Nobody from here has camped it recently.

What we don’t know about Masons Draw Campground

A land record can put you within a few meters of a spot. It cannot tell you any of this — so check it yourself, and treat anything below as the open question it is.
