Snowmobile tour descriptions

Family-friendly Half-day

Family-friendly half-day: Our groomed trails and spacious meadows offer a wonderful variety of terrain for riders of any ability. Inexperienced snowmobilers enjoy classic touring on wide trails with soft edges and gentle corners.  Our family-friendly tour rides approximately 16 miles round-trip, gaining 2,000 vertical feet with grand views of the Wilson Range, Telluride ski area, Sneffels Range, Little Cone mountain and, on a clear day, the La Sals in eastern Utah.  Safety and comfort are emphasized at every juncture while enjoying this spectacular winter adventure.  This tour is approximately 4 hours door-to-door, 2 hours on the snow. Double snowmobiles accommodate guests who wish to ride as passengers.

Advanced Half-day

Advanced half day: Experienced snowmobilers are in for a treat. Telluride Outside rides hundreds of acres of advanced terrain in Beaver Park and the Black Mesa area, highlighted by the rolling hills and glades of "The Circus." Our Advanced half day tour starts on the same trails as our family-friendly tour, but with 3 hours on the snow we have plenty of time to ride beyond the standard trail into the wide open meadow country of Beaver Park.  The mileage and speed of our advanced tours varies with the ability and interest of each customer group, but everyone enjoys the opportunity to open up the machines and ride some powder. This tour is approximately 5 hours door-to-door, 3 hours on the snow. Double snowmobiles accommodate guests who wish to ride as passengers.

Full-day Tour

Full day Lone Cone Cabin:  Telluride Outside is proud to offer a special full day snowmobile tour to Lone Cone Cabin, an excursion that combines the best trail riding in the region with a freshly prepared hot lunch at an authentic backcountry location high in the San Juan Mountains.  Nestled just 14 miles from our Fall Creek snowbase, the historic Lone Cone Cabin, or "Guard Station," provides a fantastic winter retreat.  Easy to access regardless of trail conditions, all riders can experience Telluride's magnificent backcountry with the comforts of a wood burning stove and gourmet hot lunch. Double snowmobiles accommodate guests who wish to ride as passengers.

Cleaner, quieter and safer!  Our new model snowmobiles emit up to 90% less carbon dioxide and are much quieter on the trail.  They are more intuitive to operate with a driver-friendly clutch system and feature a factory-made 2-up seat that is more comfortable for both the driver and passenger.  Our machines feature grip heaters for both the driver and passenger, a real benefit on cold days.
