I think the next step should be to start gathering information about area
attractions and plot their locations on a map along with camping areas. I did
a search for just the town names listed in your post and also added Bandimere
Speedway in Morrison and the Breckenridge area where there seemed to be a
concentration on easy to moderate trails based on the offroading link posted
earlier. Both those areas seem to be just to the southwest of Denver. I'm
sure offroading is available in other areas but we only have one choice for
drag racing, so I think we should start focusing a campground search in that
direction. The goal being, we being as close to all the planned activities as
possible to cut down on travel times. Like I said, I did a search for the town
names and plotted their locations in my GPS software. Here's what it looks
like.
