Hello board. We have zero-D in our sights back for another Colorado Trip this summer with our Grand Son.
We will be taking off soon after his 10th Birthday this summer.
Last June 2020 we took our Grand Daughter on a Loop out of Texas to Monument Valley, Grand Canyon, Bryce, Arches, Durango, Silverton and back home which proved to be too tiring and too much Wind Shield time.
After some discussion with the little Man, we have decided that we want to go,..
"Camping, Camping". Meaning setting up and staying put.
I am trying to go somewhere I have not personally been, but it is tempting to take him right back to Estes Park and Spend two weeks Re-Hiking the trails of RMNP we took last August when we escaped the Blast Furnace heat down here in TX.
We are In Search of a Beautiful Colorado State Park with 30 Amp and Great Views. Open to Private Campgrounds also.
Maybe close to a City where we could go in and try and find some fun things to do if we want to have a urban day.
Would love to hear about any Colorado Camping Adventures that the board cares to share their experiences with.
I am trying to book a Colorado State Park? I am thinking Grand Lake Area? Ouray? I love to be near water.
I am not wanting to boondock and am not looking for a locale that could possibly involve needing to be towed out due to the remoteness either.
Looking to spend 11 nights (State Park or open to a Private Camp Ground). I might even consider breaking the trip into two locations doing a 5 night / 6 night split in separate locations. We are not wanting to Move around alot during the time we are together and want to be semi close to civilization.
I want to try and stay at locations at higher elevation as this will be a July 2021 trip. I want to go ahead and book it.

BTW: For those who are booking Estes park this Summer. Spruce Lake RV is a Great place to Stay near the RMNP Beaver Creek Entrance to the park. We stayed 2 weeks in August 2020.
