WINTER RATES  |  WINTER HOME Latigo Ranch Winter Activities Winter at Latigo Dude Ranch is just as fun-filled as Summer and Fall. We have all sorts of activities, such as cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding/ tubing. We are proud members of the Colorado Cross Country Ski Association and the Cross Country Ski Areas Association.

To enhance your guest experience, skiing and other recreational activities are often conducted on part of thousands of acres under special use permit to Latigo in the Routt and Arapaho National Forests. Latigo Dude Ranch guests who have skied all over Colorado proclaim that Latigo Dude Ranch offers some of the finest cross-country skiing available in Colorado. We machine groom 50 km of track, covering varied terrain from flat beginning track to challenging advanced. All of our track is groomed for both classic and skating techniques. For backcountry or telemark aficionados, we are surrounded by over 200 square miles of deep powder in the National Forest. Click here to see XC Trail map.

Yes, we rent skis, boots and poles as well as snowshoes, innertubes or a pulk to pull that youngster behind you as you ski.

Experienced Colorado skiers know this is where you find some of Colorado's best snow conditions - for us, about 18 feet of it falls every year!

Snowshoeing has become increasingly popular over the last few years and many of our guests enjoy it as much or more than the cross country skiing. Snowshoeing gives you the opportunity to get outside during the height of the snow season to see some spectacular new sites without the longer learning period associated with skiing. The trails are great for beginner and advanced snowshoeing enthusiasts.
