BASIC TOUR
Our BASIC TOUR is run twice daily at the 4 Eagle Ranch, an 1880’s homestead with uncluttered views, rich in history and old fashion charm. Easily accessible from Vail (24mi.) or Beaver Creek (15mi.), dogsledding at the 4 Eagle is a unique experience. Upon arriving at the 4E we’ll make final preparations in the historic Nelson Cabin before we hit the trail. We’ll glide silently through the lower meadows headed for the upper mesa. Up on the mesa sighting wild game is a daily occurrence and the view offers non-stop photo ops. We’ll stop for a short break and sip hot chocolate. The dogs will noisily let us know when break is over and we’ll load up and head back to the ranch.
This tour requires no experience; there is no age limit, and no specific level of fitness. Each sled can hold two adults and one child with a combined weight limit of less than four hundred pounds. Pick up times: 8:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. If you prefer to drive out, then arrive at the tour site by 8:30 a.m. and 2:00 p.m.
ADVENTURE TOUR
T his tour is run at our remote cabin site at the foot of two of Colorado’s highest peaks. This trip requires no previous experience, but does require a reasonably moderate level of fitness due to the type of trail, high altitude, remote location, and the use of snowmobiles to reach the cabin. Once at the cabin, relax in front of the wood stove or bundle up and pitch in as we get teams of extremely excited Alaskan huskies ready to go roaring off down the trail. Our trail winds among eighty foot tall lodgepole pines, abandoned gold mines, and old miners cabins. There are very few flat spots on this trail and to make it exciting for the dogs, our guests, and ourselves, we run a different trail every day.
Pick up time: One trip daily pick up at 8:00 am.
