Around midday, we’re finally hooked up and on the road heading east. Our goal is Jackson Lake State Park, which is located on the Kansas side of the mountains. The most direct route there would be through Gridlock Gulch (Denver), but being Western Slope folks, we try to avoid Denver whenever possible.
Our route to the level lands will take us through Steamboat Springs, with an overnight stay at the Steamboat Springs KOA.
We had a nice, shady, full-hookup site, complete with adirondack chairs circling a circular table.
The Yampa River cuts through the center of the RV park, with KOA Kabins along the waterway.
I’ve thought that doing a cross-country trip in the Subaru with every night spent bunking in RV park cabins could be fun, but the price to rent one of these for the night can be more than a typical Super 8 Motel room, and most of the cabins lack bathrooms. So we’ll keep towing our trailer.
