High Rollers | Crested Butte
The singletrack options in and around Crested Butte, CO are endless. The low elevation (7,800 ft above sea level) trails surrounding nearby Gunnison feature smooth desert boulders, playful lines, and countless options while the high alpine trails a bit north top out at over 12,000 ft. In between are aspen covered forests that serve up the type of riding you dream about. As free range cows graze in the alpine fields, their cow bells can be heard clanging in the distance, invoking a scene straight out of Switzerland. But this is the wild west, and our crew of riders, Thomas Vanderham, Iago Garay, and Kim Hardin, set out to explore the stunning landscape of America's highest state. What they found were lung busting climbs deep into the alpine, aspen forests ablaze with colors, high speed singletrack with endless natural flow, and a town full of locals that live to ride.

More about the trail (though starting on the Aspen side):
UPDATE: From Gothic/Crested Butte, the hike has a 4000ft elevation gain (reaching 13000ft at one point after starting about 9k in Gothic) and dipping down 1000ft again when you reach Conundrum Hot Springs to make it 3000ft above Gothic.
- From a helpful guy who watched the video and did the hike.
CORRECTION: Metal Sculptor Sean Guerrero himself wrote in (so cool!) to clarify that the knight/dragon representation is actually OPPOSITE than what I cited at the end of the video. The knight represents the little guy and the dragon is The Man aka the corporate entity.

Ep. 58: Crested Butte - Part I | Colorado RV travel camping
One of our favorite places in all of Colorado, we head to Crested Butte after first making some emergency repairs to our travel trailer's Fastway Equalizer e2 weight distribution hitch while camping atop Grand Mesa on Colorado's Western Slope. Crested Butte is a genuine restored Colorado mining town deep in the Rocky Mountains with all manner of outdoor recreation available. We find scenic and secluded boondocking high in Washington Gulch, explore the town, and kayak on the high alpine Lake Irwin in Part I of our visit to Crested Butte.

I think the title speaks for itself: my first ride back on one of my favorite trails of all time, and man am I stoked to get back to it a little later this season.
The Monarch Crest is generally ridden as a shuttle ride, but today I learned that running a solo out and back venture is also extremely fun! The trail just can do no wrong. From stunning vistas to sweet high alpine singletrack, the Monarch Crest deserves a spot on every riders bucket list.
LFRHGS!

A wintry look at Colorado with snow covered, sub-zero frigid scenes of...
Gunnison River Valley - A memorable beautiful, breathtaking drive along the frozen Gunnison River and its lakes towards the Black Canyon.
Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park - Big enough to be overwhelming, still intimate enough to feel the pulse of time, Black Canyon of the Gunnison exposes you to some of the steepest cliffs, oldest rock, and craggiest spires in North America. With two million years to work, the Gunnison River, along with the forces of weathering, has sculpted this vertical wilderness of rock, water, and sky.
Mt. Crested Butte - One of Colorado's top rugged mountains great skiing. Being just three miles north of the historic, quaint town of Mt. Crested Butte (9,375 feet elevation) ... makes the Mt. Crested Butte area one of Colorado's best places to visit with a scenic drive from Gunnison 30 miles to its south and places beyond.
Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve - Snow covered look at the the tallest dunes in North America that are the centerpiece in a diverse landscape of grasslands, wetlands, conifer and aspen forests, alpine lakes, and tundra. The always open park and preserve's diversity can be experienced through hiking, sand sledding, seasonal splashing in Medano Creek, wildlife watching, and more!
