The Sylvan Lake campgrounds are five miles up a dirt road from the visitor center. The road was hard-packed but full of potholes, so the going was a bit rough. But we’re veterans of the dirt roadsЧитать далее

We woke up to the pitter patter of rain on the Cruiser’s roof. The rain was gentle and rhythmic…signaling that it would not last long. Nor would it make a muddy mess of the trails that one canЧитать далее

We woke up rested, and afterЧитать далее

We returned from our hike around 2:30p. Our delayed lunch meant that we weren’t very hungry when dinner time came around.
Instead, we enjoyed snacks and a bottle of Mon Reve, a Montepulciano red weЧитать далее

For the first time since we set up camp at the Elk run Campground at Sylvan Lake State Park, the wind gave us a break earlier in the day. Hence an al fresco lunch today.

what a beautiful campground. looks a bit familiar. we're you here before?
Two to Travel No … first time … it would be especially beautiful in the fall.
Oh, it sounds breathtakingly beautiful and remote! Unfortunately, I'd have to be using my O2 24/7 at that elevation and moving like a slug to boot. How wonderful that you have the ability to dry camp in that lovely camper without skipping a beat! We have neither solar panel or generator for our trailer, so we are always looking for electricity at least. Have a wonderful journey! [Diana]
Two to Travel We installed the solars ourselves so that we could dry camp and boon dock.
