Caroline swears by the Gregory Nano waist pack for everything from evening rides to long high country adventures. Here is why… they’re sneaky spacious without being obnoxiously bulky.
The Nano waist pack carries a tube, tire levers, patch kit, tubeless plugs, multi tool, bike pump, water filter, lightweight jacket, snacks and a beer (or other 12oz can) seamlessly! Yet once the snacks are consumed and the jacket is on it doesn’t feel bulky on your back.
Whether you need one or all of these items or just want to plan a ride, swing by the shop and let us help you get stoked on your net adventure.
One of the main ways to determine running shoe type is by looking at sole thickness. The sole is what cushions and stabilizes you, and how much of it your shoes have goes a long way to predicting how comfortable the shoes will be.
But, more sole does not always equate to a better shoe, and the reason behind this is guided in part by what kind of runner you are.
With so many shoes offering varying levels of sole thickness, how do you know what’s best for you? Let’s look at the importance of sole thickness, how it impacts your running performance, and what to look for when choosingrunning shoes in Durango.
When the days get longer and the snowpack stabilizes, many skiers turn their attention to climbing bigger peaks and skiing bigger lines. While weather, snowpack, and daylight often conspire to limit big mountain activities through the winter, spring’s longer and warmer days help give skiers a better chance at getting high in the mountains and ticking off some more impressive lines.

That said, if you are a beginner backcountry skier or are new to the area, it may not always be obvious where to go. This guide gives you a quick overview on mostly gentle, mostly safe places to backcountry ski in theDurango area.
