J — yes indeed I am. But May could be too early, esp. this year with massive snowpack. I would come as late as possible prior to school-out: late May/early June. There’s one big jump in tourism in early June, and a much bigger bump starting July 4. If you’re moteling, no big deal. If you’re camping, you can expect snow in the high country in early May. Hard to beat the stretch from Montrose down to Durango for scenery, ups and down and curves … with fantastic fishing and hunting everywhere you can see. Then to Pagosa Springs, Chama and Taos for more of the same. Ride safe, dave
