Being scared of heights won't serve you well in that part of the world, even on Hwy 550.  My wife and I were going north from Durango in a car and she was about sitting in my lap rather than looking over the curb edge of the road!

Also, to do most of the passes (including Imogene) you would need suspension work and BIG TIME ground clearance on your 4Runner.

Southwest Colorado is beautiful.

And asking if there'll be hippies in Telluride is like asking if water will be wet.

Thanks, everyone.  I think I've settled on Ridgeway State Park, about 15 miles from Ouray.  May jump over to Ouray, too, but looks a bit further than Ridgeway, which is 45 min to an hour.

What's Imogene Pass?  I've got a pretty tricked out '03 4Runner, with new Bilsteins, chips, throttle body, exhaust, air intake, and new steel gas tank guard that runs like a banshee.  But I'm scared of heights, lol.

I"m a mandolin player, so hope to find some campground jams while there.  Gee, I wonder if there will be any other 60 year old hippies in Telluride for the festival?

I assume you left the pod at KOA.  A Pod on Immogene would be tricky to say the least.]]> Tue, 14 Apr 2015 19:58:51 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6069&PID=58937#58937 Telluride Bluegrass Festival : We stayed at the KOA in Ouray,... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6069&PID=58862#58862 Author: Hairy Podders

We stayed at the KOA in Ouray, Colorado a couple of times. Nice place. Beautiful views.
Hopefully your experience in Telluride will be better than our visit to their wine festival, that closed about 2:30 in the afternoon. After the long drive there, we were disappointed to say the least. We fed a parking meter, bought an untasted bottle of wine from a snooty wine shop & left. The Jeep trail from Ouray to Telluride over Imogene Pass is a blast though...]]> Sun, 12 Apr 2015 20:42:02 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6069&PID=58862#58862 Telluride Bluegrass Festival : Has anyone taken their Pod to... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=6069&PID=58848#58848 Author: Robert Lunsford

Has anyone taken their Pod to this event, June 19th this year.  Planning to go, but finding RV sites seems challenging.

Any ideas are appreciated, thanks.
