Colorado is only ONE state of the lower 48 or 1/48. Yes, there are such places over 5,000 altitude and also CG's but they are the very very small minority of the total CG picture in the USA. The OP never stated he was going to primarily boondock or be on top of mountains. He needs useful info not the fringe options.
Does a generator not run at 7,000 feet or even 9,000 feet? Of course it does! A/C is rarely needed at 7,000 or 9,000 feet because it's colder drier air up high so why do some posters emphacize such camping as it's the end all do all? We.ve been to Manitou Springs, CO several times mid to upper 80's, then up to the top of Pikes Peak mid 30's cold and windy and hails very often. You need heat not A/C! Of course, there are only very few CG's with hookups high up in mountains but that such a tiny % of the CG's the majority use or for most, will never camp at one.
How dooes that far out fringe stuff help the OP?
