Winter Alpine/Trad Routes

Hey everyone. I'm putting together a 2-3 day trip for 3-4 experienced climbers/mountaineers in the San Juan region. I'm looking for advice on great areas and peaks to get onto. First ascents would also be nice, so if there is anything that hasn't been done yet, like the B route of the Telluride Traverse, please let me know! The only reason I'm not looking at the B route is because we will be going in mid December and it seems a bit technical for those conditions.

I've previously done a 3 day trip out of Telluride to Mt. Emma, Gilpin, and Sneffels and hiked out the Blue Lakes Trail. I enjoyed this immensely, and would like to get on something similar.

Routes from Ophir, Ouray, or Silverton to Telluride, around the Wilsons/El Diente, or even down towards Durango would be great.

Cheers
