There is no better place for a snowmobile tour than Leadville, Colorado. Three hours on professionally groomed trails through private and public land, with a guide out front and the Sawatch peaks in your face the whole way. Ride single or double on a Ski-Doo Grand Touring LE 900 Turbo, easy to ride and forgiving; you must be 15 to drive. If you have never been on a sled, this is the one.

**Snowmobile High Adventure**: Starting at $350. Half day, full day, or multi-day. Machine: Polaris Pro RMK 850. Good for: Intermediate to advanced riders who want off-trail powder

Calling all winter adventure enthusiasts: this is your tour. Off-trail riding on the private 1,000-acre ranch just outside Leadville and on public land: open meadows, hill climbs, tree riding, deep powder.

Book half day, full day or multi-day, with skills instruction if you want to get better at side-hilling and climbing instead of just surviving it.

In summer it is UTV tours through the historic mining district and up toward Mosquito Pass, dirt bike single track, hiking Mount Elbert and Mount Massive, and fishing Turquoise Lake and Twin Lakes.
