Spring and Summer are a delight, you can take a ride through the Animas Valley on a glider plane, go fishing on one of the many lakes and streams (San Juan River - Best Fly Fishing in USA), get wet and wild on a raft trip through the Smelter Rapids on the Animas River, venture 30 minutes west of town and explore the Ancient Cliff Dwelling Indian Ruins at Mesa Verde National Park, rent a mountain bike at Pedal the Peaks and choose from hundreds of trails, spend the day hiking the Rockies or catch the D&SNG Rail Road! Fall is the perfect time to visit the Four Corners to watch the colors change, if you have never seen it you are missing out! There is much, much more. Call and find out what you've been missing.
