One possible solution: Fly Atlas to Denver, CO, and pick up a big ol'
rental RV. It seems you can rent one for around $600 per week (not
counting gas), and that would give us the "feeling" of a road trip
without the zillion hours spent getting there.

Rent a SUV or just a nice car. See RMNP, then take a trip out Highway 24
down to HW50 through the Black Canyon of the Gunnison to Montrose, then head
into Ouray. From there, if you want a "white-knuckle" drive, take the
Million Dollar Highway to Silverton. From there take the NGR to Durango and
back again.

If you take the Million Dollar highway, don't expect the driver to see very
much sceanery...only the roadway. :~)



That is a beautiful drive. One year we stayed in Ouray, rented a Jeep,
and drove all over the Jeep trails there. Again, most beautiful. We
stayed at the Best Western there.
