In the America's with David Yetman
From the San Juans to Moab by Mountain Bike
Season 8
Episode 805
Connecting the San Juan Mountains of western Colorado and the Colorado River in Utah lies a route limited to hikers and mountain bikers. Bicycles are a lot faster, but it is not journey for the faint of heart—it's up and down mountains and valleys, from desert valleys to mountain forests. Our only refuge is huts.
