I'm mt. biking the following trails in a couple of weeks in Col. and want to know if its
normal to need one of thos oxygen canisters to make the trail. My lungs and legs can do just fine
in Durango col. all day, but have never been as high up as Crested Butte.
*401 trail near gothic col. Crested butte loop, 14 miles - never done this one
elevation gain/loss +3000, -2.900
*Teocolli Ridge -Crested Butte loop, 19.5 miles 4-5 hours - never done
*Wasatch -Telluride loop 15 miles - never
*Telluride Trail (ride up Gondola) - Yes, have done this one, no problem...ever.
If you are a local here or have done these trails, your advice would count for me.
