For those of you that don't/aren't making reservations...Good on you! That means I don't have to compete with you ;)
But here in Colorado, and in particular northern Colorado, for us weekend warriors (I'm not completely retired so I can only do weekends), reservations are a necessity. Last year for Moraine Park in Rocky, I was up early on the window opening date that I wanted, and I STILL only got my 3rd choice of spots.
When the season runs from just before Memorial Day to just after Labour Day as it is here, the competition is always keen for spots, any spots. And for prime spots it's even tougher. No, it's not right. Yes, it is reality. The information was provided for those who actually need and/or want it.
Personally, when I was working full time, I LOVED having Sun/Mon/Tue as days off -- perfect for going camping and NOT needing reservations. Go up on Sunday, arrive around 2pm, everyone else has gone back home. NO ONE around on a Monday or Tuesday. Loved it! Can't wait to fully retire and do that again. Until then, I'm a reservation junkie.
