I've lived all my life in Ohio (minus 2 years in China), but my hubby and I will be moving to North Park, CO in a few months. I've only car camped locally and backpacked in the Smokies, but I know nothing about the Rockies or anywhere else out west. So, what do I need to know? Looks like bear-proof canisters are required, but what else is different? And what recommendations do you have nice day hikes, car camping locations, and short (3ish days) backpacking loops? We'll be coming out in June to house hunt, and we'd like to camp a few nights then, too, but we don't know where to go... Thanks for any advice you can offer a newcomer!
