mr. cob Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Howdy All, My wife and I were south bound on Hwy 131, about 20 miles north of where it intersects with I-70 when we came upon a north bound bright green HDT towing a mostly white RV trailer, the other driver waved as he passed, I called to him on the CB but got no answer. Sorry I didn't get the brand of truck or trailer we were both making the best time we could on a hilly-curvy road. Just wondering if the driver is a member here?

Maurice Glenn Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 We live outside Yampa on 131. We were headed in to Steamboat Springs that morning and met you at the railroad bridge just out of Phippsburg. On our return trip home we met the same Green truck just getting to Oak Creek, CO. Since we attended our first west coast HDT rally in June it was exciting to see two trucks on such a remote road on the same day. Hopefully the green truck will reply. Travel safely and hope to meet you in Hutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick & Alana Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Is there a campground big enough for an HDT in the Steamboat area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Glenn Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Camping outside of Steamboat Eagle Soaring RV Park 25250 W US Hwy 40 Steamboat Springs, CO (970)-879-0164 Relatively new RV park. Started about ten years ago so the trees are just starting to be beneficial. Give them a call and see if they have space available when you would like to stay.

maveric Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 I didn't realize there was anyone else in the NW corner of CO with an HDT. I see a lot around here, but I think most are just driving through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr. cob Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Howdy All, We have been spending the last five days in a great little RV camp ground just outside of Hotchkiss CO, its called the "Mountain Valley Meadows RV Park". Its located about a mile east of Hotchkiss on the north side of Hwy 133. I am in one of the few pull throughs, actually I am on the edge of the regular camp ground but it has a couple of large pull throughs that could handle our rigs, the back in sites are wide and would be easy to park trucks and trailers such as ours, $125.00 per week for water-power and sewer. VERY clean, mom and pop operation that I have way-pointed on my GPS and will use again if traveling through this area. No swimming pool, no cable, no noise, just very reasonably priced no frills camping which is all I need as I explore the surrounding area. We will be heading out Wednesday morning for parts yet undecided, the way I like to travel. Saw another HDT locally pulling a HUGE live in-horse trailer the other day, I am assuming a local rancher or Rodeo circuit rider. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr. cob Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Did anyone update the campground guide? Howdy Darryl, I didn't post the camp ground I am staying at as it lacks many of the things most people want in a camp ground, when I camp I just want a clean, comfortable, reasonably priced place to park, I don't need or use the frills.

SuiteSuccess Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Still, Mr. Cobb, would be nice to list in the guide if you have time. I just listed one in South Alabama like yours. No frills but nice for an overnight if needed if going to gulf coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick & Alana Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 We like no frills! Sounds like a perfect place to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave They all count, my friend. Put in as much info as you can, including some pictures, and let the driver decide. Or the co-pilot, as is often the case..

Dave What it DOES have is great scenery and motorcycling roads nearby. Just the kind of place we like to use as a "base camp". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
