Gunnison, CO is absolutely beautiful too. Check out this link:

In my opinion, the most beautiful areas in CO are not the most visited! My CO favorites:

Silverton
Ouray
Gunnison
Evergreen
Nederland

Enjoy!

>>No, I have no idea on the current ski reports for Durango. However, I used to live there (as well as Pagosa Springs for awhile) and there is no place more beautiful than the San Juans! The train ride in Silverton (the old Silverton line) is worth it too if you get the chance!

>I'm looking forward to it. We're not skiing on Sunday, so I think we might take the train ride.

>I took a drive through CO a couple years ago. Started in Denver, went to Colorado Springs, across to the mountains (stopped at pikes peak / Royal Gorge) up to Breckenridge, then to Boulder and back to Denver. Awesome. Some day I'll live out there.
