The five points campground in Canon city

This campground is absolutely stunning and I would have loved to stay another day. (here comes the BUT) It must have been a serious tale of unfortunate events and poor planning on my part however, we set up camp decided that it was secure and went to the royal gorge rafting and zip lining tours which was amazing however when we got back our tents blew away I would have to say 50feet and the rain was soaked in the mattresses and the clothes. The second tale of unfortunate events were that a scorpion stung my in the rear end and although it was not deadly I did go to the hospital because I thought I was having an allergic reaction because my lips and neck were tingling that was just my bodies response and the adrenaline kicking in. In all the scorpion lived and so did I. We go to these places to relax and take life in a new perspective and I have no hate for this place its just requires a little more patience then I had. The third tale of unfortunate events is that we had a encounter of another species of mother natures beauties that deserves so so much respect and yet gets none which is ridiculous, anyways, that was on our last day and we just changed camp sites and left it be it was not there in the beginning of our stay but it was a little daunting being careful of every step you take. Now for the fourth and final tale of unfortunate events is that the sheer amount of bugs that bite was astounding and I am not one to shy away because of some bugs they do not scare me. However, I can say that I am one big ball of itch.

Alright, if you have made it this far its a true state of unfortunante events and im impressed you've made it this far! Have fun camping and be safe and respectful to all that you encounter!
