ASPEN-GLADE

We are back in the Aspen-Glade campground ! It is the campground where our area manager resides. Located in the Conejos River canyon, Aspen-Glade is quite picturesque. This is the view that greets us each morning as we step out of our front door.

That is the Conejos river,famous for it’s excellent trout fishing. We will stage here as we wait for the snow to melt off so we can get into our campground at Trujillo meadows.

We slept great last night with the window near our heads open.

We could hear the breeze in the giant Ponderosa pines.

It was quite a pleasant symphony to sleep to, with the river down below making it’s gentle rushing sound as light breezes whispered through the pines. Yeh, you know we slept in this morning !

Aspen-Glade is at 8500 feet of elevation and our campground, Trujillo Meadows,  is above 10,000 feet.
