Red Rocks Lake CG - Deadwood Gulch CG

After the ice melted and the tents dried we set off for Lima on mostly flat roads through a large valley. No photos and not much to say about it!

I met Dave (with a remarkable beard) and collected intel on good places to camp, then rolled into Lima.

The cafe was shut down, the motel was run down, and the gas station had no actual food, just racks of packaged food-like products. We didn't stay.

Deadwood Gulch CG was an easy 20km further on with only 3 RVs in place. One of the RVs was running a (loud) generator and after 30 minutes he came across to apologize  and offer charging for our electronics. Nice move!

The mosquitos soon sent us to our tents, and later, the wind got up and rattled the tent all night.
