Hidden Gem with awesome attractions around the corner

passing thru with our 45 foot toyhauler. combined with the truck we are 63 feet long and fit just fine. arrived 2pm ish and left next morning around 10am. Quiet and clean is the best way to describe it. They have a free self guided tour of the trains used in the 1800's that carried brave passengers thru the rocky mountains and thru the bottom of the royal gorge! Make sure you follow the road up to walk the bridge and visit the dam.
