A great inspiration December 1, 2007
This book has inspired some of our best camping trips. It's not about back-country camping. It's about sites that are relatively easy to access but that are well suited to tent camping-- natural surroundings instead of a parking lot, lots of space inbetween each site, and water/toilets within walking distance. The campgrounds are rated according to scenary and privacy, two important factors when we go camping. For some of the campgrounds the authors go into even finer detail, recommending or warning against specific sites.
We always use secondary resources when we plan a trip-- you don't want to rely on one book to get you where you're going! Get a map of the region so you can do a "sanity check" on the directions, and to find nearby features that'll be interesting to explore.
 Disappointed February 24, 2005

Many of the campgrounds in this book are, in fact easily accessable to RVs and 2 wheel drive vehicles. I expected it to cover more out of the way, difficult to get to campgrounds, where campers have peace and quiet. I was disappointed to not find any undiscovered, little known campgrounds. It does give fairly good information about things to do in the areas where the campgrounds are located. But if you're looking for some ideas on places to tent camp, might as well just buy "Colorado Campgrounds, the 100 best". It has great pictures so you can really get an idea of what the campgrounds are like and most of the campgrounds mentioned in "The best tent camping" are also found in "The 100 best".
