>So, any and all input is requested, i.e. favorite nice roads to drive, good >and/or free campgrounds, good books on CO, other things in the western part >of the state we should see, etc. Take your van up some of the jeep roads around the San Juan Mountains of Colorado - Durango, Ouray, etc. I did a little bit of this in a rental Ford 2wd cargo van (support vehicle for bicycle tour) in 1997 and it was awesome, although the choice of vehicle left a lot to be desired. I would love to do it again more extensively in a Syncro Vanagon and also stop to camp at altitude off the beaten track as it were. Incredible beauty, old mining ruins, ghost towns, views that go on forever............. Tony Anthony L.
