My friend is looking for a place to tent camp and fish with his family on his way to Cali. Any ideas of places in the forest north and west of Denver.
I have places down here in mind. My thoughts for down here would be Tarryall, 11 Mile or Taylor Park.
Thanks
I see lots of camping location along I 70 and I 76 in the metro area...is that not something he's looking for?
Not really. He wants the forest experience with a close lake to hike to with his kids for fishing.
There are places right off I-70 like Fall River Road that has what he wants, but they are SO close to Denver that the last time I was up there, it was a bit trashed. Loch Lommand would be better, but every time I send someone that way, the dang gate is closed. When is he coming? Can whatever he's driving handle rocky forest service roads?
Haha... fighting hobos, are we?Quote:

May take a day to get used to the high elevation.
Enjoy!
There is a hot springs close to the area I suggested, near Buena Vista. If you are headed to California from there take the 82 road through Aspen to I-70 and west.

Close, more kid friendly and they will enjoy this one more... https://mtprinceton.com/Quote:
