Ehoepner, I was hoping someone from my neck of the woods would reply. Thank you so much! I live in Woodland Park and every now and again catch a glimpse of a casita going the opposite way on the pass. I’ve never seen one up close so if ur ever passing by this way, and would be willing to stop and meet I would love that. I also work in COS. When the boys want to meet up and dirtbike, we usually wind up around Badger Flats or Wagon Tongue out past Lake George. But those areas have gotten quite rowdy and we have been on the lookout for quieter areas. Rampart has had a few weird and creepy incidences and I won’t even camp there anymore. I never thought I would feel the need for a sidearm but won’t camp without these days.
On another note...
I called Scamp today and the older gentleman didn’t sound too “on board” with any kind of lift or tire replacement. Plus, they are booked out till October of 2019! Sounds like Casita is the way to go for the lift options. Again, SO nice to hear your Casita does well out here. Have you added any shocks? I saw that Orbital Machine Works makes a steel bracket that fits over the black pipe that hangs down. Might be worth looking into. I’ve just been abuzz researching and researching all of this and think I’m ready to pull the trigger. Thanks for your info! Everyone here has been so very helpful.
See attached pictures, we were through Woodland Park once this year with the Casita. This year we are doing State parks. Mueller, Lathrop, and John Martin so far this year. We are near the intersection of Academy and Union.

Looks like Wilkerson pass. I’m sure lots of people stop and ask about your camper! . I work close to that intersection, but Fillmore area in the big medical complexes. If there’s ever a time you would be willing to show your Casita off, please PM me. However, I totally get the privacy thing. It sounds like you have had an enjoyable summer! Winter will be here quick so soak it up!
