I've been robbed!
I lost a day in your last revision, between the May 9 and May 26 revisions.
You're absolutely right about long days, and I was looking forward to=20
spreading out the Sector.
At the moment my route sub-sections are:
Golden (Denver) to Georgetown
Georgetown to Leadville
Leadville to Gunnison
Gunnison to Montrose
Montrose to Durango
Durango to Kayenta
These total 546 miles, which MapQuest estimates as taking 14 hours. =20
There is NO allowance built in for stopping for sightseeing or meals.
I really need, as you suspect, three days from the time we leave Denver. =20
This would still average 180 miles/five hours travel per day. If an averag=
e of=20
36 mph seems slow, remember that we are crossing the Continental Divide thre=
e=20
times, and traveling two lane roads almost all the way. There are six=20
mountain passes over 10,000 feet on the route. We aren't in Kansas, anymor=
e=20
(really!)
My current thinking is that I would LIKE to have overnights in Golden,=20
Gunnison, and Mesa Verde N.P. Mesa Verde is a half hour west of Durango, a=

major historical site. I can see us staying at the lodge insdie the park,=20=
and=20
taking a 3 hour guided tour before lunch, then on to Four Corners and Kayent=
