Dunes

Headed down to the Sand Dunes over the weekend for some cold weather camping.  The low temps at the park office were 3F on Friday night and 0F on Saturday night.  We stayed at the Zapata Falls campground about 1000 feet above that office, so who knows how cold it got up there.  Miserable, but one of those times we'll eventually look back on and think it was fun.

Love the Dunes, I need to get down there when it's warmer and do some exploring.  Not sure why this place isn't ever mentioned in typical Colorado adventure talk.  Besides the actual dunes, you have the Sangres right there with their endless mountains and trails.  Not to mention the UFO's.  And you even get to drop by Salida on the way home for some Moonlight Pizza and Elevation Brewing.
