Mount Blue Sky is closed for 2025—but this guided Jeep tour takes you above 13,000 feet on a scenic backcountry 4×4 trail, and you get to drive the Jeep.

Full description
Mount Blue Sky may be closed, but your high-elevation adventure is still on.
Skip the tour bus and take the wheel on this scenic, off-road Jeep tour to the top of Colorado backcountry.

You’ll drive a fully equipped Jeep (we provide it!) up Argentine Pass, a rugged alpine trail that reaches over 13,000 feet. With panoramic views, mining ruins, and wildflowers in summer, it’s a 14er-style experience—without the traffic or pavement.

Your expert guide drives ahead in a lead Jeep, helping you learn to drive off-road safely and confidently. No previous experience needed. This is Colorado adventure made easy, and YOU’RE the one driving.
