I like to go camping with the family for my birthday weekend every year. This year we tried Eleven Mile State Park for the first time. There is a small reservoir and a marina and a few electric sites for RVs but lots of tent sites in several campgrounds.
We had reasonably good weather for mid May at 8500 ft. elevation. It was cool and sunny and stormed in the afternoon and overnight. There was a lot of wind and times and the gusts threatened to blow away our shelter but it stakes out very well from the middle hubs.
It was a typical idyllic camping weekend in Colorado.
We had the grandkids with us and my son and his wife drove up for an overnight. They tried sleeping in the Tesla but didn’t inflate the mattress so were really uncomfortable. I should have helped them!
The kids love the fire and roasting marshmallows and of course s’mores which have to be part of at least one night of a camping trip. The kids always find something to do.
The elevation was a bit high for the older folks at over 10,000 ft. So we spent some time relaxing inside the RV. Driving to see the reservoir was lovely too.
