In late August, I picked up a new off-road camper and drove to Echo Park Campground in Dinosaur National Monument.
I drove in from the East along the Yampa Bench Road. Here is a view looking down on the Yampa Bench Road as I drove down from above
A general view of the road, as I drove along it.
Of course, I had my co-pilot to guide me.
I made it to Echo Park Campground, a primitive campground that is along the Green River, where the Yampa River joins it. There are about 15 to 20 campsites, running water (in the summer) and pit toilets. Best thing, no cell service. I spent 2 nights there. Arrived on a Thursday and there were 4 to 5 occupied campsites that night. By Friday night, nearly all of the campsites were full.
Steamboat Rock is in the background. Here is a shot of the Green River, with Steamboat Rock on the left.
Here is a view looking back down the other way out of Echo Park.
This was my first time taking the 4Runner on back country type roads and it rode and handled very nicely.
