Snowmobiling in Central Colorado
Miles and miles of backcountry adventure are waiting for you
Riding in the Central Colorado Rockies on miles of groomed trails is about as good as snowmobiling gets. Some trails take you to the top of the spectacular Continental Divide; others travel to historic ghost towns, back country bowls, and scenic mountain lakes. Local vendors rent machines, related equipment and clothing for those that don't have their own. For those that have never tried the sport before, several guides in the area offer tours, including some overnight trips. Snowmobiling in the mountains of Colorado is different than in the Midwest, Colorado gets drier and powdery snow making it easier to get stuck. Don't venture off the maintained trails or you could be in trouble. Remember its wise for all backcountry travelers to check local weather and avalanche conditions before entering the backcountry of Colorado.
