Do you have any suggestions? I stayed at a nice campground - think it was
a KOA south of Pueblo (Colorado City) last year. I'm not familier with
east slope camp sites... seems to me we ought to put a list together of
potential sites, contact those sites then go from there. I think the
casual approach is fine we have lots of time to put something together.
Once we come up with a site a "natural leader" will emerge.
