Directions

Drive through the town of Silverton. At the town park make a left and stay left. When in doubt, go left. The base is approximately 6.65 miles up Hwy 110. Four-wheel drive or good driving skills are strongly recommended in inclement weather.

Located one hour north of Durango (the closest airport to fly into), and roughly 6.5 hours south of Denver (you can get from downtown Denver in about 6 hours if you drive very quickly), getting to Silverton is an incredibly beautiful drive. McClure Pass is fastest many times, but if it is snowing, stick to I-70 and exit in Clifton and follow signs to Delta/Montrose for the shortcut to 50/550 South.
