Thanks for all the suggestions. We went with Thom’s route and Monarch Pass. Thanks much for the tip of South Park City, the family enjoyed that. Next stop Durango and Hwy 550. Any more suggestions?
Yup!
Durango & Silverton Railroad is a must see. Multiple ways of doing it. I've always done the train up and back, but one can also take a bus back from Silverton if you don't want to re-trace your steps. I find much to see in both directions.
Also,
Mesa Verde National Park , not too far from Durango and good for several days. One caveat...it's deceptively large so plan on several days to see what needs to be seen.
