Kebler Pass Road is definitely on my radar for this trip. Thoughts on taking highway 285 down to New Mexico ? Will be headed for the Albuquerque Balloon event when we leave Colorado. Again, thanks for your input.
US 285 south to NM is a wonderful drive. Diverse scenery -- The Collegiate Range in the Leadville/Buena Vista/Salida area, the vastness of the San Luis Valley and the drive down to Alamosa, the train opportunity in Antonito (the Cumbres and Toltec RR trip to Chama NM should be on your list if you have the time), and wandering on down into NM. Good roadway all the way, and ever changing vistas to enjoy.
