This may be a odd question but anyone know where you can buy Mexican blankets in the Denver/Boulder area? I like to use for car camping, I checked Amazon but looks a little sketch on what you may end up with.
Thanks!

Re: Mexican Blankets
Not sure if this qualifies as "the area", but the RMNP gift shops all had tons of them for like $15 a pop.

Re: Mexican Blankets
Truck stops that have large gift/souvenir sections. Possibly the surplus store over on Broadway. While I don't know specifics, I can't imagine there not being a store within any given mile radius somewhere that has them. Heck just do a quick Google on "Mexican Blanket Denver" and saw a couple of dedicated stores. Wouldn't be surprised to see them at 'head' shops in Boulder either. Farm/ranch/cowboy stores. Here up north I could suggest a couple, but not sure what's in the Denver area.

There's a yoga store in downtown Arvada next to the army surplus store. They have them.

Mile High Flea Market?
Last time I was there, I was able to get a flashlight, some produce, a pair of shoes, and a suitcase...Maybe they have blankets too?
Seriously, I'm with you on using them for camping. Lechuga know what you find locally!

Re: Mexican Blankets
This place is on Broadway and you can call and arrange to go in as well. We bought several for nights around the fire pit when it is cold outside.
