Southern half of the state? Ouray and the surrounding area.

Darrellbear nailed it. Crested Butte is also really nice.

Ouray labels itself as little Switzerland for a reason.

Perhaps the best view in the state: go about ten miles north of Ouray to Ridgway, then west toward the Dallas Divide. The view of the Sneffels Range is just stunning. If any view beats the Maroon Bells, this is it.

Quote HistoryI would offer Couty Road 5 leaving the south west corner of Ridgeway. Follow it on out of town. When you get to the top of the hill you'll be rewarded with an awe inspiring view. |

It's a small town that rolls up its sidewalks at night rather than a bustling resort town. The main tourist season is summer vacation peaking over the Fourth of July.
But there will be a few motels or hotels to chose from and the Mexican restaurant stays open year round. It won't be the only place to eat though. One hotel has great pizza, a couple of bagel shops that are open for breakfast and another or two places. And the Hot springs pool. http://www.ouraycolorado.com/ I might add there's a brew pub in town that serves food as well though I'm not real familiar with their menu. Ouray Ale. But I think they spell it more "uniquely." And Montrose is around thirty minutes north (and down valley.) They have everything one would expect in a town of 16,000 - 20,000. Including my nephew's brewery.

Wolf Creek / Pagosa Springs is a solid choice.
Durango / Purgatory is another one. |
