We love Forest Service Campgrounds, it is an extra bonus when we can find one with electricity. Does anyone have any they could recommend? Thanks so much.

Baker's Hole is in a National Park, not a National Forest. Two different types of campgrounds.

Sure about that? IIRR Red Bridge has some FHU 30A sites.

We love Taylor Park, Colorado and great for Jeeping! We've found quite a few with electric in the western states but can't think of names offhand. Oh, how could I forget Haviland Lake, just north of Durango - a favorite of ours.

Some lesser known ones too. Rex Hale and Wapiti between East Yellowstone entrance and Cody. Falls CG off Togwotee Pass between Moran and Dubois. Love when we have E at a FS CG. Would rather stay in a FS CG for the real camping feel, plus having E affords one to save on propane by using space heaters (or fireplace) for heating and run fridge and water heater off E too.

Rather broad question, would help if you could narrow down the area of the country.

Here in Colorado, it's hit or miss. Just in Larimer County (the one I live in) there are several in the Red Feather Lakes areas that have electric hookups. In the Poudre Canyon there's also some CG that offer electric. In other parts of Colorado, you'd really need to search the specific area you're interested in, and look at the USFS websites.
