    Default Shoshone/Black Hills National Forest

    A little background:
    Spent 3 summers in college backpacking in New Mexico (hence username). Graduated, got settled into a career, moved a few times for work, somehow managed to find time to get married, and haven't been able to hit the trails in over 10 years. I am finally at a good point where I am planning my first trip since life got in the way this summer. I am looking at Shoshone NF or Black Hills NF. I am looking for a relatively easy-moderate 3-5 day trip no more than about 40ish miles.

    Can anyone reccommend anything at either one of these locations that meet this criteria? Ilive in Colorado so elevation isn't much of an issue.

    Also on that same note, I can find a good topo of Black Hills NF, but I have been unable to find one for Shoshone and all it's associated wilderness areas. REI doesn't carry it. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thank you in advance for all of your help and suggestions.
