Since the weather in Ouray continues to be grey and rainy, I decided to stay in Salida. I think it was a good choice.
Salida is quirky, little town in the middle of the state of Colorado. It’s such an amazing place. It’s the rafting and mt biking capital of the state…!!!
There is a system of bike trails ride out of town called The Arkansas Trials. You can bike to these incredible trails right out of the door from your hotel.
This a view from the top of the trails. Not a bad decision to stay in Salida…!!
View from the other direction.
Down valley…
This view is of the Collegiate Range that has several 14ners between Salida and Beuna Vista.
After a great day of riding, had dinner with a friend at Amica’s.
