Just be careful to mind the DFW traffic....take it slow and easy. Then, once you get to around Decatur, it'll be smooth sailing till you see the Rockies. I love that drive from Espanola thru Chama and into Pagosa. Much prettier than going through Bernalillo and Cuba, IMO.

Read where lots of elk hunting in Colorado was stopped, due to the government shutdown. Hopefully this won't affect you.

Should be a great hunt if they got 8" @ 7000' means high country got hammered and should move big pulls down lower

Just be careful to mind the DFW traffic....take it slow and easy. Then, once you get to around Decatur, it'll be smooth sailing till you see the Rockies. I love that drive from Espanola thru Chama and into Pagosa. Much prettier than going through Bernalillo and Cuba, IMO. We use to have a cablin off blanco basin rd. North of chromo You're right hard to beat that drive.
