"Black Bear Pass is not a journey to Telluride with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broad-side, thoroughly
used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming -- WOW-- What a Ride!!!"

Black Bear road opens approximately the first week in July and will stay open until snowfall (approx. Oct.15). Please, keep in mind weather can shut the road down at any time.

This road is deceiving and not for children under 6, or people with back problems and/or extreme fear of heights.
