  • This video documents our drive from Hovenweep over to our next stop, Durango, Colorado! We stayed at the KOA campground and was lucky enough to book a river site. This was a really nice well kept campground, but my only complaint is that the river sites are too close together. But, we did enjoy the wonderful view and sounds each day from the Animas River. First night by the river I cooked us a whole Pit Barrel chicken and enjoyed a nice campfire.

    Glad you got to enjoy the new and improved campground. It was completely wiped out a couple of years ago from flooding after the 416 fire. The river is beautiful but it is at its lowest flow in years because of the extreme drought. I live three miles south in Hermosa. Enjoy the rest of your trip.

    This is the most gorgeous spot so far to camp and cook out. The most relaxing spot you could ask for. Grilling is half of the joy and eating is the other half in a place like that. Makes me wish I could do that someday.. maybe soon. I am working to make that day a reality.

    The Narrow Gauge Railroad kinda follows the Animas River that you have a very nice view of from your campsite. My wife and I stayed at United RV and Camp ground where the train came through the campground and separated the RV camping from the Tent camping and the river ran behind the Tent camping. It was neat when the train came through the campground most of the tent and rv campers would come out and wave at the people riding the train. We loved it, train ride and Silverton included !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @daveinmn2728
    @daveinmn2728 3 года назад +2

    LMAO at the chair discussion! They never go back in like they came out. Get some sort of cinch strap with a fast clip on it. Cinch it up after you collapse it. Then it will either go back in the bag easier OR you can toss it in the compartment and not have to worry about it doing the umbrella as soon as your back is turned.
    A little crowded but that was a primo site.

    Tie a thin rope to a leg at bottom.
    Then spiral wrap the chair like a Log.
    Then slip it into the Bag.
