Hello,

My wife and I are planning a trip to Colorado to do some fishing and just hanging out in the mountains. We are both relative novices at fly fishing. This will be my wifes first time out west. We where thinking of going to Durango and staying there, and maybe fishing the Animas river and some of the smaller creeks in the area. We are thinking of going the last week in June. Does anyone have any advice for that area? Is Durango a nice town with good restraunts and things to do besides fishing? I know it is close to Mesa Verde wich woudl be a nice side trip. This is my wifes first trip to the mountains and I want it to be very memorable for her. Thanks for all of the help.

Mike
