It's a Great location to stay for visiting the Great Sand Dunes National Park as well as many other excursions as will be listed later. This site is un obstructed, and non light poluted, fostering an amazing 'Dark Sky' location for those intrested in star gazing.
Please refer to the map to help guide you to exact tent spots and fire pits. This map will also show you the border of my property to ensure that you stay within the boundaries of the land that I own.
