Glenwood to Telluride most scenic route: CO 133 to US 50 to US 550 to CO 62 to CO 145. You can camp at Redstone in a USFS campground with electricity, dry camp at Marble in another USFS campground, camp at Ridgway State Park (one of our favorites with choice of FHU below dam or electric-only on Elk Ridge).
Telluride to Durango: there is really only one route--CO 145 to US 160. USFS Cayton cg with electricity south of Lizard Head Pass on CO 145 and/or McPhee Recreation Complex with electricity near Dolores (convenient for visiting Mesa Verde NP). Don't miss the Anasazi Heritage Center near Dolores!

There's also CO-62 to US-550, which takes you through Ouray and Silverton, a truly spectacular drive. That's the way we got to Durango from Telluride in early September. We loved the USFS Sultan/Anvil Camping Areas just outside of Silverton.
