Travel Note
From Hwy 160 in Mancos, turn north on Hwy 184. Then turn East on Road 42. Keep on Road 42. Road 42 will become Forest Service Road 561 after you enter into the San Juan Forest, but it is the same road. You will pass Jackson Gulch campground (Jackson Lake), and Transfer Campground. You will be going towards the Jersey Jim Lookout Tower. Once you pass the tower, turn left after the cattleguard at the first driveway on the left. You will come to a Y, stay to the right and continue down the gravel road. You will come to a gate, come through and follow the road to our parking area. If you use GPS, put in the location as Jersey Jim Lookout Tower. That is the closest you can get to the Ranch. Do not put in the Double R Ranch or it's address. You will be taken the wrong direction. It is about 17 miles from the Road 42 turn off, but will take you around 30-40 minutes
