Las Vegas Desert to California Sierras

Entrance to Park Sierra - SKP Coop

We are currently camping at Park of the Sierras, an SKP (Escapees) Coop RV Park. We arrived around 7 pm after a long day’s drive from Las Vegas and will be dry camping tonight and checking in for full hookups tomorrow. With arriving so late, we haven’t had a chance to see much of the park yet, but the drive into Coarsegold, CA, where the campground is located, made us appreciate being back in rolling hills with rock outcroppings, green grass, and trees – lots of trees! It’s so nice to see lush vegetation again after so many months in the relatively flat, cactus-filled desert. I felt as if I’d been holding my breath for longer than I could remember, and now I can finally breathe again! We’re all looking forward to exploring the area with Yosemite National Park’s south entrance less than 30 miles from here. Perhaps we’ll see some snow! We’re already enjoying the smells (fresh pine) and sounds (crickets – I can’t remember the last time we heard crickets). Despite a long day of driving, Shadow’s already happily exploring the area around our camper, so we think she’ll like it here. It’s going to be a nice week or two…
