This is a great way to explore the Spanish Peaks country. The scenery is gorgeous. If you are in a rush and just want to drive through, you can make the full drive (~80 miles) in a couple of hours. If you have time and interest, there are lots of little towns to stop and explore and you could easily spend a whole day.
