From Yellowstone south exit you need to get on Hwy 130 south after Rawlins,WY. This will take you through Saratoga, WY and you will see turn for Snowy Range Scenic bypass. The road is fine for 36ft RV there are some parking lots you may fit in for the views. Continue to Laramie, WY then head on 287 south to CO. I estimate it may take you 9-10 hrs or so.

There is a very good guide on the visitlaramie site. You can download a map and there are many points of interest outlined. Yes, there is camping but I don't know anything about the campgrounds.
