The highway through the Dolores River Canyon south of Gateway is CO 141. CO 145 continues on east from Naturita and loops up the San Miquel River near Telluride and on south to Cortez via Rico, Stoner and Dolores. These last three towns are in the valley of Dolores Creek and the headwaters of the Dolores River (along with West Dolores Creek).
You can try hwy 491, which used to be hwy 666 (depends how old your map is) , Its about 10 miles north of Cortez to get to the Delores river canyon. Check the map again.. Texas..
