Class A travel in Mesa Verde NP...

[Jim]

I did a search here but the info is more general then I'm looking for. I'd like to visit Mesa Verde NP but the web sites I found don't mention specifics for RV's except one map mentions RV parking in the park, but only at one place.

I don't have a toad (but I do have a bicycle) and the park is huge so, can I make my way around the park in a 37' Class A and stop at the various sites, or is it a problem for large Class A's? The NP site map shows a tunnel but it doesn't mention vehicle size. The park doesn't allow trailers passed a certain point, but again, no mention of large RV's.

Anyone been to the Mesa Verde NP in a Class A without a toad? What were you able to see?

Thanks.

You can drive a large rig around BUT...the road(s) are NARROW...and have no real berm or ditch you can roll into and back out of.

Really nice CG there with about 400 spaces...BUT when I was there they had only about 10 or so that has electricity...but it was still a nice CG.

No toad? Rent a car at the local rental place. We had to once ( prior to bringing our own) and we got there the day those lunies killed some cops and they had a man hunt for them. Once finally killed himself and the others they never did catch. I sat with the door open to my RV and it sounded like VietNam outside.....had to have been 100 choppers in the air all at once. Fed...NP service...local cops...news choppers galore.
