7/30 - 8/2
Lottis Campground- excellent as always

Baldy loop - clean and perfect neighbors

Loop camp host - terrible, very rude. Had complaints about everything we did..

We showed up a day early (yes our mistake) when we got to the loop and realized it she gave us attitude, while we were trying to figure out what to do for 1 night, a great guy Mike in the group area offered us a couple spaces for the night, she questioned everyone if we imposed on them, he stated he offered, the next day we told him we would be out immediately not to impose anymore than we have to, he stated it was ok to stay another night then we could, go to sites after, Host came by bitching at us about us taking advantage of him, wanted to know if we compensating him, and grilling us. Told her we had our agreement with Mike and it was none of her business, she continued to harass us about us being there.. we finally moved but her demeanor towards us for the next couple of days continued to be the same, we ended up leaving a day early to avoid her... hope she gets reviewed as a host and her attitude...

We wish we could contact the campground hosts at open park as they were so helpful and they were not up when we left to go find out about our Tracker that had been sent to Gunnison via flat bed tow truck. If you can give us their names I would really appreciate it. we were in the site right behind them. They are from Louisiana and have been there for several years.
