3 days/3 nights: $495/person* -- Deluxe Trip
3 days/2 nights: $395/person*
(bike is not included)
The trip includes food and drinks, two nights in our cozy huts and the deluxe trip includes an additional night at the exclusive Gateway Canyons Resort (double occupancy).
You'll meet at 7 a.m. for pre-trip orientation before hitting the Smith Point Trail, a single track gem which winds through the Dominguez Canyon. You'll navigate the pristine single track through the pinion and juniper desert before a big climb into a huge forest of ponderosa pines and aspens before reaching your first destination -- a backcountry cowboy camp where you'll spend your first night.
After a good nights rest and a big breakfast you'll have a huge 3-mile climb then cruise 6-miles to the next hut and a 12-mile single track loop which will entertain, challenge and delight you for the rest of the day.
The last day of your adventure includes more technical single/double track or an alternate non-technical jeep trail route. Either way it's a great day of riding with huge views of the La Sal mountains and a 3000 foot plunge into Gateway Canyon. You'll cruise the final miles to the secluded Gateway Canyons Resort. If you're spending the night you can check in, enjoy a hot shower and explore what the resort has to offer.
After a gourmet meal and a recuperative night, spend a lazy day around the resort's pool, tube down the Dolores River or try your hand at fly fishing. We encourage you to visit the resort's website for a complete list of amenities. Upon checkout, the resort will arrange shuttle service back to your vehicle for a fee.
