The West Elk Loop Scenic Byway in Colorado encompasses high mountains and broad meadows, canyons, forests, and wilderness areas with fantastic camping and year 'round activities, while passing through several historic cities. The Colorado Department of Transportation, (CDOT), invites you to explore this area, but advises anyone using backcountry roads to be careful when parking and leaving vehicles along the road.
