Trail Ride on the Alpine Loop Lake City to Silverton CO
Day one of our off road trip with friends on the Alpine Loop in Colorado. Such beautiful scenery. Day one was a long day, but totally worth it!!

30 years ago I could drive my dirt bikes down main street, in Ouray and Telluride. No one would think a thing of it. Looks like you could use a stop light @ the top of the Mountain today.

We did that whole trip with a Subaru Forester, no big deal. We cast my daughter's cremains off Engineer Pass summit.

Great video We are going to South Fork with ATVs and some Honda dirt bikes. Any Suggestions where to ride? Think the loop-Alpine pass might be a little long for us....lol

We have some inexpensive ones from Amazon. Here’s the name: - BaoFeng BF-888S Walkie Talkie 2pcs in One Box with Rechargeable Battery Headphone Wall Charger Long Range 16 Channels Two Way Radio (2 in the box for around $25.). They have worked pretty well for us.

We have an old Garmin GPSMAP64ST and we usually just map out the next days ride on paper maps. We are thinking about upgrading the Garmin next season.

What's the earliest part of the year that you could ride the Alpine Loop?

Depending on snow fall, I would say mid-June would probably be the earliest.

So technically you can gas up in Silverton before you go back? There is gas in-between the 80 mile loop ? thanks

I don't recall any places along the way to get fuel. We gassed up in Lake City before we left and we didn't need to refill until we got back. You can only ride on certain streets in Silverton so you can't fill up there because of the location of gas stations.

The loop is a lot more fun on a KTM 300exc, we do it at least twice a year and based out of Lake City or Ouray. I almost bought a motel in Lake City.
