San Juan Mountains, CO: Continental Diamonds

The small towns, cowboy mystique, and jagged peaks have been on my mind for years.

Wolfe Creek (good one TJ).

Also Bearpen and Bobcat. Pico and Burke. Mt Abram Maine.

I skied the east 1966-96 and regret not getting Smugglers , Cannon , Saddleback , Mont Massif and those elusive Chic Chocs. There are a bunch of NELSAP hills I did get to enjoy , so I got that going for me.

That side country looks gnarly—almost cartoonish with the snow clinging to those rock formations. Looks like a gem of a place!

I’d love to camp out in the lot for a few weeks and get the full experience.

5.5 hours from Vancouver and 8.5 from Seattle on dry roads (according to Google Maps). Given the alternate closer opportunities in British Columbia, I see why only the truly motivated go there.

Indeed. Challenging access is often what makes some places so special though. It may be, in part their greatest attribute.

I really want to go there. It seems like a funky and unique ski experience.
