      Anytime! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. I remember the early stages of getting started and it can be a bit overwhelming. Don't worry, it never gets much easier 🙂

    There is a “health foods” store on 2nd Ave just off of Elk. It does have a pretty good selection, though not quite as much as Clark’s. However, Gunnison is about a 45 minute drive into a WalMart or City Market as well.
    We ❤ this area! Thanks for such a great review to help others!
    PSA though - please respect the cows. It’s their land, not yours and we’ve seen people chasing the cows before. If cows bother you, please consider elsewhere!

    Great video Kyle! Interesting that it’s free camping in designated campsites. Not certain I’ve seen that before but I’m certain it’s done for a reason!

    • @thewanderingshores
      @thewanderingshores  Před 10 měsíci +1

      Yes, I've noticed that in a few spots but not many across the country so far. I hope it's not a sign that down the road. They're going to start charging for these sites. That's what they did in Moab

    We have different definitions of dispersed camping. lol Yeah, technically speaking it is dispersed camping, but if I have even one neighbor within feet of my campsite it takes away from the whole idea of dispersed camping. I would never stay there if u paid me.

    • @thewanderingshores
      @thewanderingshores  Před měsícem +3

      We understand, however since people were abusing the campsites in the past it led to them having to identify specific areas for people to camp. We have been to hundreds of areas over the past four years but only found a few like this. Sure it's not for everyone and we would prefer to be out my ourselves but sometimes you have to make some modifications for certian areas. We apprecaite you watching

      Not my choice for camping either, but happy to see anyone enjoying themselves outdoors. Also very, very happy to read there will be one less person in CB even if they were paid to go.
