Estes Park and Rocky Mountain National Park are in my back yard, so to speak, and I never get tired of going up there. Brainard Lake in the Indian Peaks Wilderness by Ward CO is another favourite, but the CG is very difficult to get reservations for. My all-time favourite has to be the Sugarloaf CG at the top of Snowy Range Pass, in the Snowy Range west of Centennial WY. Nothing like waking up on a cool, crisp, clear morning, stepping outside and taking in the vistas of the magnificent mountains that you can almost reach out and touch. A morning hike to The Gap, and perhaps listening to a herd of sheep bleating and bahhhing in the distance, just adds to the moment.
