0 ivykrewe Report post Posted June 24, 2012 It's been about ten years for me. I plan on Sacramento, Ca to Pueblo, Co in September. Hope you get some good responses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 aztec7fan Report post Posted June 25, 2012 What are your concerns? It really hasn't changed much in 10 years. Rocky Ford still has great melons, The Royal Gorge is still scenic, but kind of a tourist trap, Monarch pass is steep but managable, and Blue Mesa Resivoir still has great fishing.

0 oscarpower Report post Posted June 27, 2012 What a coincidence! I came to the FMCA forum looking for comments on CO'S SR50. We will be crossing the state mid August and was looking at maps to see where we should stop between the KS-CO border and Lk Irwin @Crested Butte. We have 4 nights available and I would appreciate suggestions on what areas are more beautiful, (cool in August?) relaxed; what to do or see. Normally we stay at Nat'l, C of E or ST PKs, if available...or even on rest areas (budget!!). I read about Royal Gorge but think that it might be too touristry crowded and expensive, unless it is worth at least a one day visit. Oh, also, when we arrive at the border we would have been 2 days stopping on the road (dry) and Lk Irwin is also dry camping. Thus, if the campground or area you suggest has electrical hook-up it would be nice, and preferred if there is a connection to fill our water tank somewhere...best! We travel on a 27'Coachmen Concord w/ tow. Thank you in advance!! Jocelynn and Oscar Power Florda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
