From the Rectanus Group that recently completed the Telluride to Moab Route:
"  Thanks for the Amazing Experience!"

From Dan Lockwood who recently completed the Durango to Moab Route:
"Joe,  We had a killer time on the Durango-Moab route!  Everyone in the crew appreciated the well crafted huts and amply stocked huts."

Rider Patrick Zarrick ,who has completed the Telluride to Moab route 4 or 5 times over the past ten years, has decided to take his adventure one step further...and do both routes back to back!  Leaving the Telluride trailhead on July 5, he completed the route, shuttled back, gave himself one day turnaround time and took off on the Durango Route yesterday!  Happy trails Patrick!

Nikki,

Thanks for the San Juan Huts!  This was, by far, the most strenuous but BEST vacation I've ever had!  I'll be back in 2009 for the Telluride to Moab route.  Tonight I'll start downloading my pictures and writing entries for my bike blog.  I had a GREAT time and was fortunate to have four great companions for the week.

Thanks for everything!  If you ever need someone to direct potential riders who might have questions, I'd be happy to help.

The weather in the San Juan's has been great!  Lots of snow melt and minimal rain.  The Durango Route has packed snow on the east side of Bolam Pass.  Riders currently have to walk 3-4 miles over snow pack to get to the Bolam Pass Hut on the first day.  Heading out on the second day, riders will experience another 3-4 miles of the same snow packed conditions before making it to the road.

Telluride Route...is beautiful.  No snow on the route and mud conditions are minimal!

A big thanks to all of you that entered our first photo contest. Choosing winners was not easy, but we have made our picks for the first, second, and third place winners.

3rd place goes to Cobun Keegan for this image captioned;
