Review:
The San Juan National Forest occupies a staggering 1.8 million acres of land in southwest Colorado, and practically every inch of that land is incomparably beautiful. During the summer, the landscape turns green and is dotted with massive fields of colorful columbines, lupines, and other amazing wildflowers. The mountain springs and lakes are a glittering blue that reflect the impossibly blue sky, and the rocky peaks which rise up dramatically behind them are incredibly gorgeous. San Juan National Forest has thousands of miles of trails, which are suitable for hiking, mountain biking, off-roading, and winter sports such as snowshoeing and cross country skiing.
