Description

I invite you on this wonderful day of backcountry skiing which we will indulge in, as we traipse and traverse around the glorious skiing conditions of Breckenridge, Colorado, known the world over for its awesome runs and mesmerizing scenery. It doesn’t matter if you’re a beginner or have been skiing for years, we are able to cater for skiers of all levels and abilities.

Nestled within the internationally renowned Rocky Mountains, Breckenridge has a fascinating history intertwined with the Gold Rush, and is a former mining town. It is now known as a veritable alpine and outdoor activity playground, and every year some of the biggest events on the ski and snowboard calendar are held here.

After meeting in Brekenridge and going over a quick safety and equipment check, we then head to the slopes for our skiing. There are multiple runs available depending on how you feel, and the relatively remote and pristine areas we go to ensure that crowds are never much of an issue.

Breathing in the crisp, cool and fresh air on the slopes will make you feel more alive than ever, and some of the sweeping, panoramic views you will be exposed to are truly awe-inspiring.

The alpine forests and surrounding landscapes and terrain are captivating and idyllic, and throughout the day we will ensure you are at optimum comfort and ease.

We then finish in the afternoon, hopefully having improved your skiing technique and increasing your hunger to delve in to more skiing in this spectacular region.

Skiing around Breckenridge is an unforgettable experience – book now so you don’t miss out!

Ended up booking a one-night-and-one-day hike summiting Mt Shasta because Mt Rainier was booked out.

I really loved it. Intro to rock climbing was an amazing experience. Explore-share team were so helpful in the process. The trip that I chose in the first place was not available and they managed to find alternatives and offer me the best possible solution in that situation. In the end I had a wonderful day and could not be happier!

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

It would have been helpful to know it was suppose to be a Matterhorn prep course. The goals of the group were a little different.

I was very glad to have the Back country ski tour in Montata by following reasons. 1. I had quick replies from my coordinator and guide whenever I asked something; 2. My guide was cool. 3. The tour was well-planned and appropriate duration. 4. Snow was in a good condition. Thank you!!

Poor service from Explore-share! The vendor who provided the actual tour shared with Explore-share that heavy rains prevented them from doing a substantial section of the tour. I was not notified. The vendor also offered a substantial discount for what we were able to do and this was not shared with me either!

Neil was our guide and he was amazing! We did Camelback mountain climbing and he knew all about it and the other nearby mountains. Lots of great info and fun. I took my two boys, 9 and 11 years old plus climbed myself (44 years old). So perfect for all ages and skill levels. Definitely worth doing!!!

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned alot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!
