A fire a few years back wiped out this ridge, but new pines are growing back.

JinD,
Can you give me driving directions to this area? How far is it from Denver or Ft. Collins, CO?
Thanks for sharing the photos.
HAPPY CAMPING!!

Sure thing Mona
Take 285 to Jefferson. Hang a left on Tarryall Rd (CR 77)for 8 miles past the ranches and rock formations.
Hang another left at Rock Creek RD ( County Rd 39). The Pike Nat Forest starts in about 2 miles. We we around 3-4 miles in when we found this spot. There were many before and after. The main road is a bit rough at the beginning but good after that. I only traveled the side roads to the point that I knew I wouldn't take our 25ft TT farther, so you should find even more with a pop up.
I don't know the exact miles but it didn't take us 2 hours to get home including the rush hour traffic thru Denver. ( we live near DIA)
I understand that there are boondocking areas around Red Feathers and Lake John ( Walden) that would be closer to Fort Collins.
hope this Helps
