Caleb was great! We didn’t have to drive and we got to experience 4-wheeling without fear! Learned about petroglyphs vs pictographs. The views can’t be beat! Thanks Caleb!

We had an awesome trip to Silverton. We drove up with Jared and then Tim took us on the Jeep tour and then back down to Durango. Impressive driving in the snow and sleet. Beautiful scenery and great guides. Tim was exceptional!

Tim the Tour Guide was the best! I went out the past Sunday and it was absolutely perfect. Tim knew all the great spots to stop and wander, take scenic pictures, and enjoy a nice snack with the best cookies available. I learned a lot about the history of the Durango/Silverton area as well as some intriguing information about the landscape and terrain. We made a stop to meander and check out the scenery (saw some fresh bear tracks in the snow 😉), just as it started to lightly snow, BEAUTIFUL! On the way back to Silverton, we managed to spot a couple of bull moose relaxing so we stopped to watch them interact for a bit. They're HUGE! Anyway, all this to say, I'm so glad I booked this little excursion. I could have stayed out in the back country forever!! I am already planning my next trip, and will be requesting Tim as my guide. Until next time! 🫶
