<br>
When Cobweb and I were hitching into town from Springs Creek Pass our first
choice was to go into Lake City. Since we didn't have a mail drop and
hitching was slow we made a sign going both ways to Lake City on one side and
Creede on the other. Eventually we got a lift into Creede, which is a great
little town. <br>
<br>
Anyway, the lady that picked us up owned the Old Carson Inn, which was a couple
miles down the dirt road to the left (hiking north) from Carson. It looks
like it may be a little pricey but here's the website...<br>
