Rocky Mountain National Park is a pretty cool area, not sure about the backpacking opportunities though, and I haven't personally been there but I hear that the Maroon Bells-Snowmass wilderness area is amazing. Good luck with your treatment! -
If you head up near Vail, pm me, I lived there for 8 years and I can tell you everything to do there. It is a beautiful time to be there. As for boots, check out Merrell. You can find them at REI. I have had two pair over the past 10 years and they are great, hold up well. Glad to hear you are better.sigpicComment

Not anymore Merrell's are ALL now made in china and are not what they were even 3 years ago. I have a set thats about wore out that were ok from a couple of years ago but, Upper end Lowa's are the best IMO and they are german or austrian made

Maybe head a bit south and check out the Grand Canyon if you haven't recently. I find it fun to go once a year just because it's awesome. Whatever you do, have fun.sigpic<< wreckedComment
