July 8--Creede

Moving day!  We have been in South Fork at Alpine Trails for 1 month and it is time to move on.  We have a week until we need to head to Texas to visit the new baby so we have decided to try our hand at dry camping in the motorhome.  We made a few "scouting" trips last week and selected a couple of good looking campsites in the Rio Grande National Forest.  This is "dispersed camping"--pick a spot and stop.

We are now camped off forest road 508 off Miner's Creek Road just north of Creede.  So far so good--furnace works and generator works--so we have electricity and heat, but limited water.  By the way, this post was composed and sent while sitting in the parking lot of the visitor center in Creede.
