PPine, thank you and I hate crowds, but have not gone there yet. I thank you for the words though.
I have been to Boulder, Colorado Springs, Durango, and Animos Forks.
I need a place to go that I can fly my wife and Military son up for a week and hang out. Flying them into Boulder is easy and I can pick them up and head back to the camper.
One last thought, for the post on 100 better places to go can you share those with me?
Disney World and Universal Studios was crowded so if I made it there I can make it in Estes.
I will look up the campgrounds and also the trails that dogs can go on.
