• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

the actual Daintree pics sucked ... too dark to turn out , I forgot about the difference between typical QLD sunshine and the comparative dark of the forest and got a ton of under exposed pictures

still , its an awesome place , from the wildlife the plantlife and the tourists wandering around in all kindsa nearly nothing ... I LOVE tourist watching :)
 
Ha yep.... nice. My pics are all still 35mm and 15 years old. I envy you taking your kids up north ... I'm a barefoot tropical origin myself, just dont like mangos, weird ay. Think I trod on too many rotten ones as a young fella.
Ahhhh ... the barra ... the butterflies ... the rainforest ... (not forgettin the crocs) ... mangrove jacks ... ferns ...
I gotta do it soon, and a good digital slr wont go astray , and of course the GPS ;)

The elevation is 8,400 ft.

The campground, among Ponderosa, Aspen, Spruce, Cottonwoods and juniper trees, is composed of two loops - Upper and Lower. The Lower Loop is adjacent to the fast-moving Conejos River with some sites next to the river. This is a pleasant and attractive
campground that is excellent for both the transient and destination camper.

A good day trip is the Cambres and Toltec Scenic Railroad (steam) which offers a 64-mile journey through abandoned mining towns. One access to the train is at Antonito, CO, about 13 miles from the campground. Call (719) 376-5483 for information and
reservations.
