Backcountry Skiing and Ski Mountaineering Adventures in Colorado, Canada and Alaska with a Certified Ski Mountaineering Guide San Juan Mountains, Colorado Backcountry Skiing at it's finest In these wild and rugged mountains of southwestern Colorado, incredible back country ski adventures can be found. Here are some of Colorado’s steepest and longest ski descents, though, more gentle terrain is never hard to find. The many quaint, Victorian mining towns that dot the valleys offer great base areas from which to stage one’s endless array of back country ski possibilities. Whether it be rolling ski touring, lapping up the powder in an alpine bowl, schussing through aspen glades, or cautiously picking your way down a steep couloir, it can be found in the San Juan Mountains. These southerly mountains enjoy plenty of nice and sunny days, though, the relatively high altitude allows the tempuratures to stay cool enough to keep the powder nice and dry in the winter. Come spring, the warmer tempuratures transforms the snow into the magic carpet ride that is corn skiing. Come and sample Colorado backcountry skiing at its finest anytime from winter through late spring.
