Greetings All,
In mid September, I’m heading out to Durango, CO for about 7 days with a coworker. He is in his late 50’s and is going to spend his days base-camped at the KOA, riding various trails on his mountain bike. I am looking to spend 3 to 5 days of our trip backpacking the San Juan National Forest solo. I understand the timing would probably be better in July or August, but this is the time it works out best for both of our schedules.
I’m looking for route suggestions. I’d like no less than 30 miles, no greater than 50. A loop is preferable but I’m open to other options. I admit to being completely ignorant about the area. As I have begun to do a little research, I realize I hardly know where to begin. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
