Colorado Backcountry, we believe that every outdoor experience should be as unique as the person setting out for it. Since 2006, we’ve been guiding year-round adventures across Western Colorado, working from Crested Butte as your home base. Whether you’re looking to hike, bike, ski, or wander into the high country, our locally-owned team knows these mountains intimately, and we scale each day’s objectives to fit you.

From relaxed scenic family outings to intense multi-day mountain traverses, our spectrum of offerings covers everything in between. You may want a gentle guided hike soaking in the views, a skills clinic to sharpen your technique, an all-day back-country bike ride, or a multi-day expedition moving through alpine terrain. Whatever your goal, we tailor the pace, terrain, and challenge so you simply show up ready to explore the rest we take care of.
