Rock Springs/Green River KOA in Rock Springs, WY is a standard KOA campground except that the RVs are parked facing in alternate directions. That is great if two RVs are friends camping together, but not so great otherwise. As the two RV Gypsies went out of their front door, they were greeted by the other RVers going out their front door. The two picnic tables were side by side. If the people in the other RV wanted to sit at their picnic table and smoke, the two RV Gypsies could not sit at their picnic table and eat.
Upon checking in, the office had free cookies and coffee. The entry
was paved, but the rest of the park was gravel rocks. TRAINS went by
and blew their horns at all hours of the day and night. The campground
had a very small pool, which seems to be normal at most KOA's. It was
windy while the two RV Gypsies were here. Check in time was 1 P.M. and
check out time was 11 A.M. The campground did have decent Wi-Fi and
TV here, at least. |
The two RV Gypsies did not take photos in the campground. They were only here for a one-night stopover, but they did take a short ride in their truck to a scenic canyon nearby. |

Below: While driving through
the canyon, the two RV Gypsies spotted the bright red rock sticking
up between the trees (shown in the photo above on the right) and Karen
Duquette took a quick photo out of the window. Then Karen got out of
the car (see panorama photo below) and walked down the dirt road a bit
to try and get a better photo, but it was impossible to get a better
photo of the rock. |

and a corner. This would not be a good place to meet an oncoming car. |

The two RV Gypsies thought
that the rock formation on the edge of the cliff looked like the head
of a long-ear rabbit. (photo below on the left)
- But from the other side of the cliff, the same formation looked like
three separate heads (photo below on the right). |

Below: The dirt
road through this canyon was barely wide enough for two cars to pass
each other, but the two RV Gypsies only met up with one other truck
the entire time. Since there was no traffic, and no space to stop, the
two RV Gypsies just stopped on the road whenever they wanted to get
out of their truck to take photos of the nice scenery. This was one
area where the two RV Gypsies parked on the road (see above photo on
the left) to take photos and then they walked a short distance to look
down into a gorge. |
