My favorite campground is in Redstone on the highway 133 south of Carbondale. Its on the Crystal river which I like to fish. There is a lot of undeveloped national forest and BLM land west of Craig that is open to camping just north of the Yampa.
And I like camping along the eastern edge of the Flattops Wilderness. You can access some good sites off of Derby Loop on Derby Mesa, just northwest of Burns off the Colorado River.

I have stayed at a few of these around Aspen. Nice and cool in the summer. Big plus is close to Aspen and Snowmass for restaurants and sometimes free shows. Down side is it can get really cold at night, but you can see the stars like no place else!

looks like i'm out of luck for trying to find a spot for 4th of july weekend. Do any of you guys have recommendations for something off the beaten path where a tow behind can make it?
Get some National Forest Maps and spread 'em out. Look at all the roads you can explore. Teach you kids to read maps and have them pick out places to stay.
National Forests are your land. You can stay there for free, you just have to move every fourteen days.
The farther you drive from Denver and the Springs, the easier it is to find a spot.
The 4th is tough. It's like deciding to go to a bar on New Year's Eve.
Flat Tops or Grand Mesa may be an option. Both have lakes and trails and free camping and are trailer friendly.
Remember!!! Use your transmission to keep your speed down when coming back to town.
Get in the right lane, put it in second and don't ride your brakes.
Google Earth the area you want to stay at.

Thanks Eddie. I'll give this a shot.
Due to some career changes, I just sold my prized little Class B, after completely restoring it, but before using it much. While saddened by the sale, I am somewhat heartened by the enthusiasm of the couple who bought it. I think it will be well used, and I feel good about the quality of vehicle I sold them. Too bad I didn’t get to explore all the places I planned. I will live vicariously through your future posts

"There are no finger prints under water."
It used to be...
My folks used to talk about the Army Corps of Engineers had a bunch camp sites. They said whenever the built something the would put it a camping site/area. They always had water and usually other stuff. They had pictures from camping areas that were almost empty on holidays.
This was 20 years ago so who knows if this is still an option. I have no idea where to find information.
Happy hunting.
