Blazing Adventures Aspen

About

Blazing Adventures Aspen is a guided hiking outfitter located in Aspen, Colorado, operating out of 555 E. Durant Avenue. The company specializes in guided excursions into the White River National Forest and the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness. Services range from half-day backcountry hikes to full-day and multi-day treks, including specific routes to Crested Butte and the Maroon Bells. The hikes cater to various skill levels, from novice to expert, with guides providing instruction on local ecology, geology, and wildflower identification. The business has operated since 1973 and is family-owned. While the database lists a typical duration of about 2 hours and a moderate difficulty, the website details indicate that hike duration and difficulty vary significantly by the specific trail option chosen, with some being advanced. Parking is available at the Aspen location. Pets are permitted on hikes. The primary value is the guided experience rather than self-guided trail access.
