Loveland, CO and Scottsbluff, NE

June 2010
After we left Rocky Mtn National Park we headed to Loveland CO which is just east of the park about 50 miles. After ‘dry’ camping in the park it was great to have electricity, water, sewer and internet. We like dry camping for a few days but miss our comforts after a while. Loveland is a great little town. We spent one morning on a bike ride along the path that goes around the lake in town. The second day we hiked the Devil’s Backbone which was scenic and some good exercise.

Scottsbluff Nebraska on the North Platte River
After so much spectacular scenery, Western Nebraska is a quiet kind of pretty. We drove through the grasslands on our way to Scottsbluff which is fun to see (for a short while ;-). Our campsite was right on the North Platte River with a nice long bike path that ran through the campground. The National Monument at Scottsbluff was historic and also scenic
