"I like "best and safest" and also "least stressful and most relaxing." Do you have a time crunch? I would double back to Fort Collins and enjoy the drive up 14. However, Thom definitely is the authority here."
"One aspect of doubling back from RFL to US 287, then south to CO14, is being able to fuel up with gas/diesel at a competitive price at Teds Place, which is the intersection of CO14/US287. About 90 miles from there to Walden, with peace of mind that fuel will not be an issue."
THANK YOU all so much. I think we'll skip the precarious road with the camper. No time crunch and getting fuel is always a good thing to do, right! Also don't like stress and narrow roads. Like peace of mind better.
