we are camping in Fuda
Colorado Fuda is a mountain bike
destination in western Colorado it is
nestled at the base of the Bookcliff
mountain range and it's known for its
steep uh descents and Punchy little
uphills on almost sand dune esque
terrain uh the cool part about Fuda is
that there are campgrounds kind of
nestled in among all of the mountain
bike trails so you can set up this base
camp and go out for an hour ride come
back have a snack grab your 4-year-old
go riding again and it just allows for
the perfect family camping
trip we've had a fun thre generational
camping trip this weekend uh Chris and I
came down with our two sons Hudson and
Forest Hudson is four Forest is just shy
of 9 months old and Chris's mom Jean Ray
joined us as well and it has been
perfect a little hot but perfect lately
there's been a lot of interest in
overlanding and really these trips aimed
at getting as far away from people and
civilization as you possibly can which
is wonderful and we've loved that kind
of camping just to escape and have an
adventure and have it be about the
journey itself and once you have kids
that can get a little bit more
complicated uh the beautiful part about
this trailer is that not only can It
handle that type of camping overlanding
and really rugged terrain but it can
also serve as the perfect base camp for
a family camping trip in an established
Campground and with kids that is really
convenient we still have the outdoors
we're still spending more time together
than we would at home um but we don't
have to get quite as
extreme the longer that I've camped in a
teardrop trailer uh the more I keep
adding things to it and there's always a
case to be made for simple is better um
and I've been on that side of it for a
long time this trip however is probably
the first time that I've been very glad
that I had an air conditioner on the
trailer uh we're camping with our
9-month-old it is a really warm weekend
he is still napping twice a day he took
a 3-hour nap in the trailer and I had
the AC on and it was truly the only way
that that was going to be possible it
was just way too hot for him to be able
to nap
otherwise the other beautiful part about
this trailer and this is true for all
topo2 voyagers models is that they have
an onboard uh water heater and 20
gallons of water and that has just made
life really simple at Camp uh not to
mention a sink but once you get the
water up to temperature there's just a
reserve of warm water on board whenever
you need it and if I need to make a
bottle in the middle of the night for my
son I have hot water
instantly the other piece is the same
um just to be able to do dishes and not
need to make a massive production out of
it allows me to really quickly get back
to being with the family I can do dishes
or Chris can do dishes and they're done
and we get back to Camping playing in
the sand riding our bikes and having a
good time SOA is a big fre
place with big people and never get
lost with if you get alone that's y for
help
