We stayed at Kenny Flats Rd. south of Pagosa Springs CO, for 8 days. With some rain in the forecast, we headed to a small campground outside of South Fork CO, Moon Valley RV Resort, for some deep cleaning.
Moon Vally RV "Resort?", not really, just a nice little RV park we really enjoyed.
Originally the Kenny Flats Rd. boondocking spot seemed idyllic. We got the sight we were hoping for, at the edge of a meadow with a near-by pond that attracted elk and dear.
But as our time progressed, it got hotter and drier.
The dirt turned into a dry powder. As more vehicles traveled the less developed part of the road the powder got deeper. We tried to walk those roads but every step produced little clouds of very fine dust. Needless to say that dust got into and on everything. While there we scouted several other sites that would be much less effected by the dust. We plan to return sometime in the future with cooler weather.
It rained off and on the first 2 days at Moon Valley giving us ample time to do our inside cleaning. The rain did a pretty good job of rinsing off the outside of the truck and camper.
The third day was clear and cool, perfect for a day trip through the old mining town of Creede CO (very touristy) and on to North Clear Creek Falls.
A little geologic history...
After 4 nights at Moon Valley, we moved on to the next adventure.
