July 20-24, 2012 – Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area, Utah
We left Jack’s Gulch Campground on Friday morning and drove as far as Jensen, UT where we spent the night at the Outlaw RV Park. This park is basically hookups in a gravel parking lot and the sights are really close together. The park has mostly long term residents who look like they are oil field workers - we are glad we are only spending the night here. We arrived at Flaming Gorge National Recreation Area late Saturday morning and are staying at Pine Forest Park which is one of our membership parks with Camper World. This is a very nice RV park with large, grassy sites and shade trees. The weather here is wonderful, in the mid 80’s during the day, much cooler than we had in Loveland. Like all of the Southwest it is very dry here and there is a fire ban in effect. There is a Forest Service trail behind the campground that leads to a cliff overlooking Flaming Gorge Reservoir. The trail is 2.5 miles round trip ...
