Take glennwood springs to carbondale and then do not continue to aspen but instead head into carbondale and then through to paonia.

About 10 or 20 miles down is a town called redstone and this area is gorgeous there are crazy amounts of aspen trees mixed in with beautiful redrock. From Redstone to the paonia national forest is like 30-40 miles i think and the whole way is great. These aspen trees where around 45 feet tall and they where everywhere with lush floors.

This is a very picturesque place and it seemed to me that there was nobody around. From denver it is like 3 and half hours. There is also the town of Marble up in these woods and I think that there are a couple of ghost towns in that area that would be great to camp in.
