I was absolutely amazed at the size of the crowds! We attended Wednesday through Friday and, as we were leaving the area Saturday morning, it looked like multiple parking lots had been added for the weekend crowds. We arrived at the parking lot each morning by 8:00 and waited in line for at least 30 minutes each day. Thursday was the most crowded of the weekdays, probably due to the discounted entry for seniors and veterans. If we ever go again, the three-day ticket is definitely the way to go.

The seminars were interesting and informative. Trey Selman with rvsafety.com was a wealth of information! I wanted to run out and check my tire specs immediately after his presentation.

My favorite exhibitors were RVezy (a Canadian company! 😉 AND they had THE best giveaway t-shirts 😆), Roadtrippers (I use this app exclusively for trip planning) and, of course, Camping Tools! I am so excited to be able to add a journal entry with our photos as a reminder for possible return trips AND… I don’t have to create another website to do so! We already have a YouTube channel as a digital scrapbook of our travels and are creating a website for our genealogy business, so this platform is such a useful resource for us! It makes organizing our photos so easy!

Finally, I want to recognize Meagan Butler from the RVezy booth who gave me valuable pointers for routes to take in Colorado on our way to Camp Carpe Diem. I appreciate the time she spent with me and am so looking forward to a spectacular drive!

Towering Snow Walls and Fewer Crowds: The Best Week of the Year at Rocky Mountain National Park

Every year, right after Memorial Day weekend, I make my favorite trip of the season— a drive up Trail Ridge Road to the Alpine Visitor Center in Rocky Mountain National Park. Yes, I know, living in Boulder, Colorado does have many advantages and this is one of them! This is the sweet spot. The plows have carved massive snow walls through the high-altitude passes, and for a brief window, you can drive through towering corridors of snow before they melt away in the early June sun. The week after M...

Trailblazing Tech: How Teqnizan CEO Rama Prasad Is Redefining Outdoor Audio, One Innovation at a Time

Rama Prasad always knew she had a knack for numbers. Growing up in India, she watched her father—a civil engineer—bring complex ideas to life, and realized early on that engineering was in her DNA. That talent and curiosity took her to one of the most prestigious engineering schools in the country, where she was one of only seven women accepted out of 300 students. “Back then, it was rare,” she recalls. “But I never thought of myself as different. I just loved solving problems.” After earning he...
