This video shows how Beautiful it is up in those mountains but nothing compares to being there . I took my family up there summer of 2015 we saw Moab Utah and Grand Canyon ete but nothing compared that part of Colorado . Check out Ouray Colorado also it’s in the same area . Truly a special place
@Steven Goodnight I haven't gone yet. Long story, but I had some legal issues and then this year I was layed off. Not sure if I'm gonna make again this year. To much unknowns.
Just got back on his area , Rock Pirates took good care of us and I have to say as well this was the best off road experience I’ve had to date. Awesome scenery.
Truly a beautiful area, my wife and I have ridden ADV bikes there several times now. What this doesn’t touch on though . . . is how absolutely packed these trails are anymore. It really detracts from the experience. Still worth experiencing 👍
We are headed there at the very end of May 2021 with SxS. Helpful suggestions would be appreciated as in weather, type of clothing, and what to expect. Coming from Arkansas our weather is HOT by this time. Just need to know what to plan for. Thanks!!
We did this ride two years ago. Absolutely beautiful ride! Truly breathtaking... and we used rock pirates. Great people. But be careful of what roads you are on, we got pulled over for turning in to the wrong street be the police and they don’t play!
@@doctordr1397 yes, but you have to buy the trail pass, not sure what that cost. And I believe that you have to have your SXS tagged and insured, check into that
2021 might be the last year of this Destination, at least as far as Silverton is concerned. Wonder what Polaris Adventures and Rock Pirates rentals think about the city counsel of Silverton voting to ban UTV's from Silverton? I guess that would end their business, as it is today, with their rental company located in downtown Silverton. The vote got pushed back to this fall, so I went ahead and went for potentially one last ride thru Silverton this summer. I saw no reasons while there why UTV's shouldn't be allowed in town. Nothing but courteous riders bringing lots of revenue into the local economy.
Curious if anyone else noticed that huge trout jump out of the water at 16:45 seconds when he skipped the rock in the water talking about the Rio Grande River 🤔👍
We have been going up to Silverton since 1969 when those trails were barely wide enough for 1 vehicle. They are like 4 lane highways now, Absolutely beautiful, Best thing Silverton did was to allow 4 wheelers to be driven in town. You guys need to try out Lost Trails Creek 50 inch trail, Its a 4 miles behind the Rio Grande Resivor and is 8 miles 1 way . Definitely a advanced riders dream. I have a few videos of it on my channel. My Can Am 570L eats those mountains up. Like the video and Thanx Fer Sharin !!!!
1/15/23 Can anyone give me a update on if you can still drive a SXS in town? Seen a post saying they were looking at banning UTV's. I am looking at bringing my own.
The road/trail to Kite actually comes out with Kite Lake positioned on the left. The trail this summer got really narly toward the end due to major snowfall., It was really great.
I’m trying to plan a trip where I can rent a utv and have some fun. Only problem is I see these people riding 3mph. Why even offer them a 1000 if they don’t use the power?..
I am guessing it was filmed probably around late August or September. Usually the high country has a presents of snow in June and into July, depending if the year has sufficient snow.
I was in this area camping last week. 7/10. We had a 4wd but snow blocked roads above 11500 so we hiked a lot. We camped at 11000ft just below Clear lake. The air was still and never below freezing. It was absolutely beautiful. Lots of snow, waterfalls and melting water and evidence of HUGE avalanches. Quite awesome. Ill be back!
This is like Harley Davidson....rent crap all over the USA..pay daily rental..daily insurance and fuel and pay for break downs out in the middle of no where. You better have one hell of alot of money for this vacation trip...and be ready for no vaseline...when done....no way in hell from my house..
