Late last summer Photographer Richard Durnan and Writer Matt Nelson rode the Durango to Moab hut-to-hut bike route with a small team of friends. You may have probably seen some of Richards photography scattered throughout our web site. Richard and Matt had a story about their trip appear in the March issue of the Desert Leaf Magazine, an Arizona based publication.

An on line version of the story may be viewed here on the Desert Leaf web site.

If you would like to see more of Richard Durnan's outdoor adventure and travel photography check out his web site at www.richdurnanphoto.com

Even if you are not thinking about biking yet, we are. Preparations have begun readying the huts on both our Durango to Moab and Telluride to Moab hut-to-hut bike routes. Check out a photo gallery on our blog for a behind the scenes look at what we have been up to getting ready for you. If you haven't book a trip yet, don't delay any longer. Call now and make your reservation to ensure you get a prime departure date.
