During our Mesa Verda visit, we stayed at Echo Basin Resort, which is just off of a fantastic San Juan National Forest access point, where there are some great trails and boondocking opportunities.

Thanks for all of the amazing content! Southwest Colorado is so beautiful and this is now towards the top of our camping list.
Thanks for the info. Would it be safe for a 38' Super C at the lower spots you mention?
WiFi?
I loved the music in this video. So many times the copyright free music people use in YouTube videos is horrible and sounds like it should be in a low budget “adult” video. The music in this video was refreshing as was the scenery.
Does any one know what a gps is,
I am constantly amazed by how little I know about my home state ! Thanks for sharing. It’s now on our list…
The town of Manco should pay you for this advertisement. Beautiful part of the country.
