Busskipper,
Thanks for the detailed itinerary! We too love Colorado, and were at Turquoise Lake just last June! We also were in Ouray in, I think, 2015 and drove the Million Dollar Highway. We also camped at a NFS campground (Big Cimarron Campground; no hookups)-- on August 31, we and our friends were literally the only people there, and it cooled down a LOT at night! You are right, it's a fantastic destination, and may just be our alternative plan. I am going to plug in some of your suggestions and see how it all works out.
Thanks so much for your thoughts.
Debbie
Big Cimarron, I'll bet was GREAT, so you know the area, just need to have someone push you back. :)
First half of August will be more crowded but the kids head back to school in Mid August so things tend lighten up during the week in Colorado.
Think you might just Love Lake City and the Surrounds, Quiet - Cool - Beautiful.
Hope I helped "Push" you back to the Colorado I Love.
Let us know what you decided.
Best of Luck,
