Cyclefrance, the term "wide open spaces" was coined for the 4 Corners region! It is dramatic, spectacular, and drop dead beautiful in every direction. "In all the 6 directions, may you walk in beauty" - Navajo Blessingway.

While I have never lived in Mancos before, I did live in Durango, Rico, and just outside of Telluride for years and years. I came out to the Front Range to be with the ax murderer. BARF! What a mistake! It feels like I've been trying to get back home again forever, and a thousand wild mustangs could only drag me deeper into the back country, up a twisting mountain road, or out on a canyon's rim to watch the nighthawks dive at twilight.

It is the country of my heart and I am counting the days -40 of them - until I am back home. I shudda been a cowgirl!

I have a cousin who lives in or near Durango. Out of curiosity I looked up some pictures and information. It looks like a beautiful place. Mancos also looks great.

Congratulations.
