Thanks for any info that anyone has!
While I have only crossed 71 a couple dozen times, if this were me, I'd look at staying west of the foothills and head to Minturn then catch Rt 24 all the way to Limon, Done this and it is a lot more to LOOK at when driving in the mountains than what you see on 71.
I would drive miles out of my way to take this route -- just so much more to see and do.
JMHO,
