Chaco is a magical place, no doubt about it. But it's a magical place for people, not for vehicles and RVs. I thought we were going to be disassembled when we went over last fall.

If you are going the end of April you might want to be aware of this campground closure and keep up to date on it.

Still I have to smile
It turns me on to think of growing old
For though my life's been good to me
There's still so much to do
So many things my mind has never known'

We went there last summer. Drove the Durango. Road was washboarded BAD. In some places I was down to 5mph to keep from shaking the vehicle to death. I suggest not taking your camper in there.

First thing I thought when I saw the title was "oh heck no"

We spent the day there last June, but stayed at Desert Rose RV in Farmington. The road in to Chaco was hard enough on the truck. I would not take my 5'er over it. MaineDon
