We found a great spot to camp and light in the Portal area. I'd love to be able to come back during high season, which I'm sure would be awesome.

No problems Pam
You kind of tricked me on this one. I thought for sure this was the right species but it is not found in Colorado. Then I saw this one was found in AZ and it made more sense.
