What is my best route pulling 5th wheel camper and GMC diesel? Back thru Moab or to Ridgeway to Rico across Lizard Head Pass? Thanks.

I'd camp at Ridgeway State park or down 550 in Ouray and take the truck on a day exploration of Rt 550 'The Million Dollar Hyway' down to Silverton & watch the Narrow gauge steam engine train come into town. VERY neat drive.

On up to Ridgeway pass Lizard head is easiest. Its a pretty drive but not as exciting as Rt550 to Silverton.

I'd think both would be fine but that going by Lizard head would just be more fun.

Delta - Ridgway - Telluride - Trout Lake - Dunton - just so much to see and do and the pass is so gentle I never knew it was a pass. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

If you make the trip late in September you can enjoy the Aspen changing - Love that drive.

Best of Luck,
