Trip Overview:
If you haven't experienced the Colorado Rockies in the summer, you are missing out on some of the most breathtaking views and invigorating challenges in North America. We’ll have the house to ourselves in historic Leadville where mountain views surround us. During the day, we’ll explore the trails and take in the beauty of Colorado. We’ll get to know each other over home cooked meals prepared for us with love. If meditate and chill is more your thing, use the downtime to reflect, journal or just rest. It’s going to be a dope week full of community and exploration.
Accommodations:
The Ice Palace in Leadville, Colorado is a beautiful 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath Grand Victorian home just off the main street of Leadville, Colorado. As home base for our adventure, you will have a comfortable place to rest and hang out with your fellow adventurers. We make room assignments to make the most comfortable use of the space based on the group. If you come on the trip with a specific person, we will make every effort to put you in the same room. If you come alone, you may have the chance to get to know someone new. If there are any special considerations, we want to know about them, and we have a bag full of tricks to do our best to give everyone a great place to stay.
How to Get There:
We provide ground transportation to and from the Denver airport and Leadville and each day to the trails. You just book your own flight within specific time windows on the first and last day of the trip. We will send more information with contact information and details on how to connect with us at the airport after registration.
Route Information:
Each day we will select the route that is best suited to the interests and the capabilities of the group. We have permits for routes that range from 4 miles to 18 miles and 1,700’ of climbing to 4,500’. With our experience in the mountains and on these specific trails, we will pick routes that are just enough but not too much of a challenge. We want you to enjoy your day and be proud of what you accomplished. We will go over the next days route each night to let you know the plan and answer questions.
Safety
Client and crew safety is the most important priority for any Top Out Adventures trip. We will take every precaution possible to mitigate risks and be prepared in the case of an emergency situation.
Mitigation Precautions:
A trained first responder will be on the crew
All clients will be given a route briefing the day before and a printed map with contact numbers
Crew members will be carrying GPS spot trackers with SOS buttons
Crew members will be carrying 2-way radios
Home base crew will be tracking progress of the crew GPS trackers and will be able to contact Search and Rescue if needed
Stay at the beautiful Ice Palace with your own room, great food and new friends.
Topping out on Mt. Elbert, the highest peak in Colorado!
