Suggestions for overnighters in northern CO?
I'm heading to CO for 10 days around the end of June/first part of July. I hear the snowpack up north is good, so that's where I'm thinking of heading. I'm looking for class IV-easy V overnightable runs. The Encampment seems to be a good one. Any other ideas? What can be put together in the Poudre drainage? From what I know, most are roadside and we're wanting to get some good wilderness camping in if possible. I don't think we're going south this summer. So, the Animas is not on list and I did the Black Canyon last year (looking for a little less hiking). If anyone can provide suggestions that would be awesome. I'd lean towards a class III-IV run too if it had good wilderness and was maybe three days long. Thanks.
As a sidebar, I've read about Grape Creek of the Ark for a while. I hear the Ark has good snowpack this year. What time of year would be the best to give it a shot? Anyone think it'll go this summer?
