When it comes to camping, people from all over the U.S. (and the world!) flock to Colorado for our delightful designated areas, majestic mountains, and all-around stunning scenery. While the Centennial State is chock-full of places to pitch a tent, we cannot get enough of this one campground in particular that may just be the most beautiful in the entire state:
Located just outside of Silverton, Molas Lake Park & Campground is a colorful 137-acre campground that sits beside the infamously gorgeous Million Dollar Highway.
