My advice would be leave now and get there quick. The weather forecast for Durango for the next 7 days is highs in the 40s/50s with no precip. That will put you on dry highways to get there and get set up. After that the temps drop and possible precipitation. And once there, do not leave until you have a forecast of several travel days of no snow. Go thru Santa Fe and up, or Albuquerque and up. Do not go thru Raton/Walsenburg/Alamosa and the associated passes. I would not recommend you even go if there is snow in the forecast for your travel dates.
I agree your biggest problem may be the temperatures, teens and sub teens.
Have you checked to see what is available as far as RV parks open?
During my working life I traveled a lot to northern states. Invariably during the annual snow storms there the streets and highways were clogged with accidents. When I said that I thought they knew how to drive in it up there, the answer was "No, we just tell you southerners that. We are as bad as anyone else, especially during the early year storms."

In Texas when it snows, and it sometimes does, the ones you find in ditches and wrapped around phone poles are the transplanted Yankees who "know how to drive on ice and snow." ..................
