Silverton Colorado area

We are going to spend two weeks after the Fourth of July in and around the Silverton Colorado area. We could use some help on free camping spots. We don't need anything fancy and we have a 25 foot Northwood Nash travel trailer & pulling it with a three-quarter ton four-wheel-drive diesel. I see some free camping in the national forest service but how available is that in July? And can you recommend where we can camp 2 or 3 nights or even a week in one place. Be able to leave the travel trailer and go sightseeing for the day. It's just the wife and I both healthy enough to do hiking and biking dry camping.
Any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated. Also if you have suggestions of what to see and do we would be thankful.
