Description

Teocali Ridge is a real treat for riders looking for an extra aerobic challenge in the Crested Butte area. Teocali Ridge trail climbs and climbs, up dirt roadway and singletrack, through thick forest and alpine meadows.

The climb up Teocali Ridge becomes more difficult near the apex of the ride, becoming steep and difficult to navigate whilst on the bike. Hiking may be the mode of choice here for all but the very heartiest of lungs. Taking a break from the climbing, riders can enjoy the amazing vistas afforded by Teocali Ridge of the surrounding mountainsides. Once at the top, riders may find the downhill singletrack to be steep, loose and narrow.

Riders take note: dirt bikes are allowed on Teocali Ridge. Please ride accordingly.
