North Fruita Desert is a nice place to spend a week or weekend. It can be hot in the summer and freezing in the winter - the shoulder season is the best time to visit. I recommend coming after April 30th if you’re planning to dirtbike so you can ride on all of the trails.
Buena Vista and Nathrop are great areas for boondocking and free camping during the late spring and early summer months. The valley is typically warm and the camping areas are free of snow by late April. While you’re camping in Buena Vista I recommend you visit the ghost town of St. Elmo, off-road or dirt bike up Mt. Princeton, and relax at the end of the day in the hot pools of Mount Princeton Hot Springs. If dirt biking or off-roading isn’t for you, there are many beautiful hikes nearby.
Hartman Rocks makes a great weekend getaway from Denver and the suburbs. We took our Keystone Outback here last summer and stayed overnight. There are over 50 designated and free campsites. The sites are far enough apart from one another that you feel like you’re all alone. Excellent mountain biking, dirt biking, and rock climbing!
