I haven't been up there in a few years. It's a beautiful area.

Nothing your missing out on. Nice area but campground is rather dated.

We don't generally camp in or near campgrounds anyways... to us it's not camping to go somewhere with more neighbors than home regardless of where it is located. 

My wife and I boon dock off the pontoon a lot, throw our supplies on and head for the less traveled areas of our water world to do one thing..........get away from people.

Absolutely... I'm a boondocker... But I would love to have you as a neighbor if camping... Maybe drink a beer with you.

well here are a few of my CO trip.

Ophir pass was the bad on in the truck. but we made it and did fine.

some others.

who can tell me about this crank shaft? what does it go to?

 

and now for some awesome views the snow was still 4+ feet deep in june. this was around 10K feet

 

 

and our camp.we boondock. is that the correct term.

Here is my idea of RV camping. That white spot in the background is my trailer during bear hunting.

View from camp.

Killer. Neat trip. I love that area.

That shaft is for a hammer mill. Each prong would lift a big vertical hammer and drop our to crush ore.

your the first to correctly answer CSM.

 

Now there is a antique. Wow! I love old history like that and just be able to sit in front of it and imagine what it was like back in those days.

yeah and to see the trail it took to get to that loacation. it's amazing what they did back then.

here are a few more. first is an old air pump, with what i think is a flathead ford.

 

and more the the rock crusher.

 

elevation was around 10K and a narrow little trail getting there. they hauled these beams one at a time and some took a week or more to get into place. rough life...

 

Can you imagine hauling that engine up there? How about all the tools to just assemble that mill? Crazy... Wow!
