What we’re about
RV camping is awesome and finding people to share camping adventures with can build a unique community, draw in diverse friendly people, and hang with people who enjoy the same activities as you. Enbed yourself in this RVing network and make new friends with organized adventures.
This group is based out of Denver, CO and most events will be within 400 miles of Denver with some nationwide trips. Many trips are organized around lakes, National Parks, State Parks, and other fun activities. Everyone is welcome even if you do not own a camping rig. You just need to enjoy camping and traveling.
Many trips will require advanced planning (4 to 6 months out) and private paid reservations at specific campsites. We encourage all members to plan and post trips as the success of the group relies on its membership.

Possibly visit Colorado Gators if anyone has interest.
The Colorado Gator Farm is one of Alamosa’s most unique attractions, and highly underrated. When visiting Alamosa and the Great Sand Dunes National Park, be sure to save some time for this oasis in the desert.
Utilizing the geothermal waters of the valley, the owners decided to start a Tilapia farm in 1977. They found themselves with fishy problem: a surplus of dead fish. Instead of throwing away the dead fish, in 1987 they bought 100 baby alligators to take care of the fish remains naturally. These baby alligators grew fast in the warm, geothermal waters and locals started asking if they could see them. The Gator Farm opened to the public in 1990, showcasing their tilapia ponds and enormous alligators.
As time progressed, the farm took on another role as an Exotic Animal Refuge. They have received dozens of unwanted, illegal, and abused reptiles from all over the world. ; Now the refuge holds not only alligators, but tortoises, iguanas, poisonous snakes, and giant snapping turtles. Through fundraising and educational awareness, they have been able to add to their sanctuary by including various bird species and a tropical biodome.
