Please do not rent floating inner tubes with this company. They are completely negligent and will…read moreput you in harm's way. We rented inner tubes with them to float on the river next to Telluride. The employee told us that it would take about 1 hour to float 3 miles, so we parked our car at the end of those 3 miles so we could easily finish our float at our car and head home. After 2 hours, we had only floated 1 mile. So, it would've taken us 6 hours to get back to our car instead of the expected 1 hour, at which it would've been after dark and much colder. Thankfully we brought a cell phone (even though we were instructed not to) and thankfully we had friends in the area we could call to pick us up. But the completely incorrect information we received from this company still put us in harm's way and could've caused us to be in a legitimately dangerous situation if we were any less lucky. I reached out to the company multiple times about their errors, and they never responded. Please do not ever rent with this company or trust any information they give you.

This national park is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with the best-preserved Ancestral Puebloan ancestral sites in the United States (nps) - it celebrates people. The snowy peaks in the background is San Juan Mountain. We visit multiple Mesa Top Sites, (900-1100, nps). MTS means top archeological sites within this park. We first stop at the Far View Terrace Cafe for bathroom break and also pick up our lady guide; then driving up north, stopping at the PitHouse, ending the tour at the information & research center in early afternoon about 2pm, that includes an hour lunch at Far View Terrace Cafe, with a wonderful view. Two other cafes are the Spruce Tree Terrace Cafe, and the Knife Edge Cafe. The Cliff Palace is impressive. But the tour didn't take us there - only viewed it from afar. I actually bought a mug that changes with heat and a pretty conch bangle from the gift shop. The information center is cool; the museum is ok.

Riding on the train and looking at at how narrow the tracks were and the mountains sides where they were cut out to make the rail line. We sat in the parlor car ( last car on the train) you could go out back on the train and take pictures. When we enter our car our hostess ( I forgot her name) w met us with a friendly smile. Where each person sat there was a fresh donut, water bottle, and a small insulated bag. The in side of the car was beautiful redone. We passed old telegraph poles, and the tiny little office where the telegraph person worked. We had a truck followed us with fire equipment on it in case the train caused sparks to start a fire. Then a little fire car followed us when the truck could not. Thought that was interesting. We passed so much beautiful green fields, mountains and a lot of Aspens. I bet it is beautiful in the fall. We arrived at a restaurant train stop for a delicious lunch of either chicken or meatloaf. Best meatloaf I have had in a long time. Served by a bunch of cowboys from Texas. The trip back was relaxing and we decided to have a Bloody Mary, delicious. Saw a lot of Elk on the way up and back. Well worth the trip. So many decanted volunteers that have work so hard to keep trains like this running.

Finally a docent came over saying, "Sorry, but you can't be in here." We said we had tickets and showed her. 5-10 minutes later she apologized and said she could take care of us, but we weren't on the manifest (even with our tickets) so she'd be in the other car, moving back and forth. We would've missed all the fun information and tour, which had already been given to the other cars, should we have stayed. Or it was offered that we move to the other car, which was 200.00 cheaper, with no mention of a credit or refund. So we got off, and asked for a refund. No apologies were given. It was an awful walk of shame past an otherwise full train as we heard the workers on the radio talking about us disembarking! They were not prepared for us, and it was a 600.00 waste.

The drive up during a storm was also an adventure we were nervous about not making our time slot with the roads being bad. We were able to make it during our slot time and luckily still had time to get ready. I will note to leave a lot earlier during a storm. Once we arrived our guide made sure to provide us instructions and made sure we all had proper gear for riding. They also offered us some hot drinks before, half time and after our ride back at the trail head base camp. During breaks my boyfriend and I were able to take turns driving and enjoy the views. The back seat was very comfortable. Our guide took us on some loops in the area and we came back to camp to warm up and use the restroom during breaks. My boyfriend did go off the track by accident and our guide with a few other men helped get it out easily. We had a lot of fun with our guide who was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We did run into a few other groups on the trails which caused some bottlenecking. Our guide was able to coordinate to go around or let the other groups pass by us. I highly recommend going with ice pirates and also wish they had more merchandise to buy to remember our trip.

Moreover the information they provide within the exhibit in the building (the aerial photos are awesome!), and the great booklet they hand you for the self guided tour through the ruins are excellent. Make sure to have a hat and wear good footwear, as there are no shades and the path down to the ruins are steep. Also don't forget to thank the museum staff, and buy something from the shop to support them!
