TOUR DESCRIPTION (Passage Map)
The San Juan Mountains in SW Colorado are some of the most beautiful and rugged peaks anywhere, and for mountain bikers, Durango and Telluride represent the two most amazing base camps for great riding. On this trip we’ll shuttle high up in the mountains to ride some of the biggest, iconic descents in the area totaling almost 15,000’ of descending over 3 days. There IS CLIMBING on this trip; it’s not all downhill, so keep that in mind.
We created this trip for those who don’t want a guide, don’t want to be supported during the week and generally just want their own self-serve adventure with a bit of logistical assistance. Each day we relocate a very deluxe camp setup (provided by Ready Camp) of (2) 10×10 canopies, full kitchen, dry firewood, camp chairs, fresh water, coolers of food and beverages (you purchase prior to trip) and all your personal gear like tents, bags and clothing. You can go as cheap or deluxe as you want on food, beverages and amenities!!
