There is a new CG on the west side of RMNP that was built in an area where the pine beetle had killed all of the trees. What a joke... the bathhouses for the tent area were 1/4th mile away... in the RV sections they were close by :S
Rocks were placed at the back of the RV site's limiting their length for no reason... nothing in the way. In a 100+ new CG not a single site for a big rig and there was nothing limiting the size of the sites other than stupidity.
Sorry Busskiper, even if the Gov builds more it will not help those of us with big rigs. Even with two extra water houghs you should be able to go 4-5 days without FHUs.
I can usually find nicer USFS CGs just outside a NP where the sites are not jammed together and with GoldenAge pass its $6-8/night. Most of the side roads in YNP prohibit RVs so driving the toad is a plus.
