    Tons of BLM land here in Colorado to boon dock on. Just jump online and you can find a lot of information. If you plan on staying in a state park here you have to reserve a spot 6 months in advance or you won't get one. The gap (I-25) between Colorado Springs and Denver is under construction now, and will be for a while, and it is a bear to drive. Every time we pull through there it is a white nuckle drive between the big rigs and the crazies.

    Sounds like a great time. Be safe and have fun.

    Winslow is a great stop. I was standing on that corner when my wife pulled up in a Fleetside Ford to pick me up!

    We, (The wife, dog & I,) head west from Florida every spring... Spring weather on the Great Plains has changed our plans more than once... New Mexico State Parks are reasonably priced, Arizona not so much... We like National Forest CG's... https://www.fs.fed.us/ivm/ and look for higher altitudes as the weather gets warmer. Thereby keeping the dog cool... And it is all about the dog!

    WAIT...WHAT...I-25 is still under construction? When our son and his family moved to Fort Carson (2 kids ago) it was under construction and looked like it had been for a while. I thought I-15 in Utah (home state) was the only major road constantly under construction. We have about 100 miles between Payson at the South and Ogden at the North which has been under construction since before we hosted the Winter Olympics in 2002! I have driven your I-25 with and without a trailer. It's not just the Big Rigs and the Crazies, it can be the Crazies driving the Big Rigs and diesel pushers with a car in tow. Just be patient, stay in your lane and maintain a safe speed and stopping distance. Isn't that what they taught us in Driver's Ed 40+ years ago?

    IMO, I25 up from Albuquerque to Denver, is one of the most dangerous interstates in the country. Just be careful, AND there is NO truck stops on the road! To get fuel, you have to go into small towns off the interstate. And they are small, tough to get in and out of. But a beautiful drive in the summer. You can see more road side crosses on that road then any other...Sad..
