    West Coast Camp Commander 2010 Pictures & Tales

    Camp Commander 2010 is officially underway in Silverton Colorado. Janet & I arrived last night and spent the remainder of the evening setting up camp.

    We left Peoria Arizona at 8:30 am where the temperature was 105 degrees. It took up about 10 hours to make the drive to Silverton but we did stop at a couple of tourist spots along the way.

    Our first stop was Dinosaur Tracks where you can pay one of the local Navajo Indians to show you the tracks. I am sure some of the things he showed us were nothing but he had great stories and it only cost me $10









    Last year we drove past Four Corners and told ourselves we would stop on the way home only to take a different route and miss the monument.

    This year we stopped...



    But they were closed for construction. The attendant told me that we could not see the marker due to the construction but if I wanted to pay $3.00 I could drive up to the fence and look through it... I saved the $3.00

    And then it was on to Colorado:



    And Elephant Feet Rocks:



    Janet wanted to stop at this lake and look for a GeoCache, and of course we stopped.

    WC Camp XK Headquarters

    We arrived in camp around 6:00 pm and set up camp, most of it actually got set up the next morning when Roy & Brian came over and gave me a hand.





    The new section of Red Mountain RV park is very nice, not only do they have full hook-ups but they have 8 private bathrooms with showers, a club house with free wi-fi (slowest in the world I think) and a Hot Tub.

    DAY ONE / PICAYNE & PLACER GULCHES:

    17 MILES OF OFF-ROAD DRIVING.

    Day One got off to a slower start but that is expected when you consider that everyone just gone done driving a full day just to get here. We set out for a couple of trails we have not done before and thanks to Roy and Mary who scouted out the area we had a good run over Picayne & Placer Gulches which was a easy high shelf road with great views.

    We did stop and walk around an old mining camp:

    Just two Commanders is camp today so we didn't really take too many with the Commanders. Tomorrow is another day and we will be hitting the trail with at least four Comanders.
