The riding in that area is steep and technical with high altitude - some days were up around 11 & 12,000 feet. I took care to drink lots of water and the altitude didn't really bother me that much. The weather was near perfect and I had a blast. Most days we took the Hermosa Tours shuttle up mountain gravel roads and then spent another hour or two climbing and descending as we circled the mountain ranges. At the end of each day I was treated to an awesome long downhill.

Sweet 1-track! We are planning to have Matt shuttle us up to Kennebec Pass as a stop-over to our final destination - Crested Butte!

Pat - Just one day in Durango? Kennebec is a lot of work but worth it!!!!
after looking at those pictures I think I would pick Durango over Bend
We have done many rides in Durango over the years but never the Kennebec Pass ride. We've never been to CB so that is where we want to spend most of our trip...
