Fancy Pass -Missouri Pass is a great loop. ~10 miles. Can get kind of busy up there on weekends

Another option is the West Grouse Trail to Beaver Lake Trail. camping at Turquois Lakes. It involves a shuttle between BC Ski area and Minturn but ECO bus connects those two points. Hiking is about 16 miles.
