Trail Notes
What we noticed on the ground
In late Sept of 2019 we were traveling up to Colorado Springs Colorado and had the pleasure of sending one night RV camping a Lake Trinidad State Park. Lake Trinidad State Park is located on and around Lake Trinidad and that is just west of the community Trinidad Colorado. At the time of our visit the Pinion Trees were so very fragrant that It was like camping at a Christmas Tree farm! Lake Trinidad State Park does not have a very large camping loop but the elevation, lake views and of course the wonderful smell of the trees makes it a great place to spend a night or two when traveling north or south through Colorado. Come along with me as I explore Lake Trinidad State Park!

Campnab
Want the best campsite?
I do too.
I want the right site, on the right dates — not just whatever happens to be left when I make the reservation.
That's why I use Campnab.
I tell Campnab the campground, my dates, and the sites I'm looking for. If one of those sites opens up, Campnab lets me know.
Then it's up to me to grab it through the campground's reservation system.
Campnab doesn't book the campsite for me. It watches for the opening so I don't have to.
👉 Have Campnab watch for your campsite.
Affiliate link: Dude RV may earn a commission if you use this Campnab link. Campnab is optional cancellation watch, not the park reservation system, not an official park service, and not a guarantee that a site will open.
Starlink
Want to stay connected on the road?
So do I.
Dude RV travels, camps, uploads, and runs Factory from the road. Starlink keeps us connected.
I am not claiming it works at this campground. Coverage and performance vary.
Referral link: if you order Starlink through this Dude RV link, Dude RV may receive Starlink service credit that helps pay the internet bill. That is not a cash commission. Always check Starlink availability, coverage, plans, and pricing. This does not claim Starlink coverage, speed, pricing, or performance at this place.
