Beauty abounds. The first week in October in 2019 the Aspen were changing color!!!

Rick Clarizio

Beautiful area drove through on the way to pagosa springs

Pam Resner

Chimney Rock is a fun place to visit and offers a variety of learning experiences. Such as star gazing and Full moon hikes.

Shane W

Beautiful! That is about all one can say. The geography of the mountains in this part of Colorado is mesmerizing. Getting a little crowded with side by sides and quite dusty, but I'll deal with it for the scenery.

So fun and the buildings were cool.

Kathy Wilcox

Beautiful scenery, hiking, and weather.

Michael Peterman

Very beautiful forest in southern Colorado. Miles and miles of scenery, waterfalls, and trails.

Adam Davis

Beautiful scenery, some of the best in the country. Lots of wildlife and flowers to look at. Plus views of Vallecito and across all the surounding mountains. It would be very peaceful if there weren't 1000 cars driving up and down the dirt road.

J Brown

The views are outstanding if you go to ouray you can get a guided tour up the mountain. At 12,500 feet the air is thin and you definitely want to have sun screen on because you will burn fast.

Joyce Burke

Spud Lake is a fairly easy hike and it is so beautiful!!

Keith Harper

The rent up 3 rd is a 3 percent 3 percent tax 2 percent of 3 of 33the 3 income tax return of the time that you have to pay for the tax return of the time that you have to pay for the tax return ofof the timber tax and 3rd update and the street is a good time to 23

Scott Osborn

Majestic mountains, crystal-clear streams, banks of trees, and lots of well-maintained paths from which to enjoy it all. Check it.

Thomas Hayden

Hwy 550 near Silverton Colorado, beautiful scenic drive year round.

Trevor Hyatt

Stayed off country road 193 off highway 160. Did some free dispersed camping with my wife, daughter, cat and 4 kittens. Beautiful area, refreshing, relaxing and serene. Love the free national forest camping.

tom cox

I drove the national park on us550. Beautiful landscape but hated the drive with a 57ft trailer. Gotta watch your trailer at all times. Enjoy!

Roberta Anderson

Awesome scenery!! Love the dirt road, and all the wildlife!

Ernesto Castaneda

Beautiful pristine place, would love to visit again! Hardly reception in a place like this, but definitely would come back, just plan accordingly.

Zach Wais

One of the coolest places on the planet.

Megan Boren

I would come back again for sure. Such a beautiful area! We drove up to Silverton on the Million Dollar Highway and it's name is apt... It is gorgeous!!!! But it has no guardrails so be extra safe while driving it! We stayed at the Florida Campground at a group campsite and we all loved the spot! We also saw a mountain lion and the dogswere able to roam free. Such a great camping trip!

Cheryl McCook

The drive is always pleasant.

Clay Loving

Well managed, and good access.

Talion

The picture looks prettier.

Jerry O'Hair

Camping here in the summer is great. A true national treasure. It would be even nicer with more trash receptacles. That is Washington's fault , of course. Budget cuts. The abundance of campsites was refreshing as well.

Justin Samuels

Some of the most magnificent land on Earth hopefully saved for perpetuity.

Buzz D

Camped in the miners cabin campground, great location, but for whatever reason the park rangers didnt open the bathroom for the campers

Sheree Sponsler

Fantastic place in the summer. There are lots of hikes, camping, and activities in the area.

The reason I live. Here,unspoiled raw beauty God's

William Romero Jr

Great time everything was so green wildflowers everywhere

Luca Santarelli

Quartz lake tail is an awesome hiking trail in San Juan National Forest.

Paul Dormeyer

Great peaceful camping near Mesa Verde National Park and Durango.

Cool smells clean .water streams deer birds wild flowers.very tranquil place to visit

Camped at Burro Bridge Campground. Site #11 is the best. Have to go home--wish I could stay another week. A must-do is to hike up trail #649 to the meadow which will knock your socks off.

Bren S

Soooo beautiful! Colors of the trees on the mountains were amazing!! We were there end of May.

Tony Vowels

One of the most beautiful Accessible areas of the Great Country. From Ouray up US 550 to Silverton, is one of the most SPECTACULAR Roads into the San Juans.

Jeff Pettit

Absolutely beautiful part of the world. If you have never been here do yourself a favor and spend some time driving through the mountains. If you have a 4x4 its even better!

Beautiful and amazing place to be. Either just a quick drive through, setting up a camp spot, or hiking a trail you can't go wrong here.

Gwen Sexton

Love South West Colorado.

Robin Binkley

The campsites are spread apart and there's plenty of vegetation. There is flushing toilets and running cold water. No showers or hot water. There are fire rings on concrete not pits. The hosts are friendly and the mosquitoes not to bad. I even saw a jackrabbit! It's within an hours drive of Mesa Verde and Hovenweep parks.

Raymond Burchell

Love it. Great area. Lots of things to do. Hiking camping fishing. Respect the forest and keep clean for everyone

ron rosa

Beautiful scenery, alot of hiking trails, rivers and Creeks.

Jess Baidwan

Nice trail, little harder than I remembered.

Cynthia Collett

We took a Jeep tour. The scenery was breathtaking and more varied than you would expect. And our guide was very knowledgeable, even knowing the names of all the beautiful wildflowers!! He also knows about the geological creation of the whole area through which you drive and of the quite diverse plants & trees. Count yourself lucky if your driver is called Ren. He works for Colorado Outback Adventures.

Quinn Davis

Americas best kept secret! Absolutely amazing!

Karen Kahler

Trails are maintained. Had fun running and biking. Also did some atv riding, which was a blast.

Beau Been

Some of the most beautiful places in Colorado can be found here.

Summer in the San Juan mountains never disappoints! Be sure to acclimate before going up to Ophir pass or Imogene, they're more than 10,000 feet above sea level.

Adam Velasquez

Awesome forest. Pleasantly few off road vehicles zooming about. I love it!!

Thomas McConville

What could be bad about the national Forest? Went up a goat trail past 3 old gold and silver mines near Helmet Peak in my stock Z71 Colorado. What a beast. What a trail. What a view. A little scary. Tight switchbacks Gets tighter and scarier the higher you go

mark green

I love this place cant get enough of it.

Denise Barlock

Fantastic drive from Ouray to Silverton... Especially when colors are changing. Stunning views. Highly recommend

So beautiful! We live in AZ and so this area is So Green (for us desert dwellers).! Just wish it wasn't such a long drive from Phoenix. The Animas river is so impressive!

Leona Parker

This is a very beautiful place to visit while on vacation. Love it here.

Abe Lopez

It was a free campground i read about, and it was perfect! A little rocky of a road but nothing you cant handle if you go slow and are careful. Spaces were more than adequate for our class C, and they were pretty nicely spread apart too! So it felt private :) gorgeous scenery and trees all around, with occasional deer and bear

Will Forsythe

We spent all summer in colorado.it has been great

Great wilderness area for recreation, trail riding, camping. Spectacular views. Wolf Creek ski area is awesome, always has great snow for skiing. This is a wonderful place to camp or a day ride. You won't be shortchanged by this national Forest, main thing is watch the weather and like any other national Forest, be prepared for anything.

Summer Atencio

It's hard to find spot sometimes but it's beautiful when you get you stuff set up

Marci Larson

The jeep trails all had snow yet but hopefully in a couple of weeks we'll be able to get all the way to the top!! If you've never been on the jeep trails, rent a jeep if you don't have one! The scenery is breathtaking!!

Beautiful forest with lots of wildlife to see.

So much to explore! GREAT fishing at Lemon Reservoir! Saw a bunch of wild turkeys and watched a coyote try going after some geese. The geese won in case anyone is worried... We went during the week so there were only a few people besides us utilizing the day use area. Headed back up there next weekend!

Patti Embree

My favorite place....in the forest, hiking, horseback riding, snowshoeing, country skiing...love it!

Velda Wasson

Good old fashion way to spend a day.

John Hyde

Around every corner is a more beautiful scene than the one you just left.....I think it's much prettier than Rocky Mountain National Park....and is lesser known....well worth the trip to see......

Biff Preston

As a Kentuckian, let me say this is probably this nation's most beautiful forest.

Nathan Wallace

Most beautiful part of Colorado with plenty of remote trails for great backpacking opportunities. Lots of day hiking trails as well but this is a backpackers paradise.

marc smith

I have experienced lots of details at this place. I will attempt to share them with you. One of the details I can share is trees. Another detail that I can share is mountains. Other details include water, Rock, furry creatures, sky, snow and sounds.
