We’ll set up your hikes or rides with the right blend of mileage, pace, scenery, and environment.  Tell us your interests and we can provide interpretive talks on geology, local history, ecology, wildlife, botany, or land management.  We’ll get to know your tastes and from there we can book the right bed & breakfast, hotel, lodge or vacation rental, or we can set you up at the right restaurant.  By choosing Colorado Backcountry, you’ll get to tap into over a decade of local knowledge to make the most of your vacation!

Our route planning and consulting services are available for hiking, biking, or multi-sport adventures.  We’ll provide all the details you need to run the show yourself including digital maps, GPS waypoints, camping options, scenic points, water sources, trailhead logistics, and permit information. 

 

Our SHERPA SERVICE may be just what you need if you’ve got your own game plan, don’t need a guide, but need some logistical support.  We can take care of shuttles, establish a base camp, prepare meals, or simply hump gear.  An example of this service is managing llamas, scouting routes, cooking, and hauling gear for Colorado’s most well know photographer - John Fielder.
