Devils Canyon National Forest Campground

On the road today at 7a and pulled into Devils Canyon campground around 4:30p, after driving 447 miles. Mileage did well climbing the Rockies! Never saw less than 8.3mpg on the gauges, but average from Hudson to Avon (just west of Vail), was 9.1, and then from Avon to Grand Junction, average was 11.3, although for a while I was seeing high 14’s. Wind picked up again on the west side of the Rockies as I was seeing around 8.3. I’ll get the overall average tomorrow when I fuel up in the morning at Blanding, Ut, 6 miles away. So basically the head winds hurt me more than anything. Gas at Avon was 3.149/g and at Grand Junction, 2.959/g (3.05 without my Love’s app.)Lue lisää
