Overview

Brian Head Mountain stands magnificently, reaching 11,307 feet high above wildly scenic southern Utah. This broad and burly pinnacle is home to Utah’s highest ski and mountain bike resort. Riding in Brian Head translates into long, vertical-mile descents set in crisp, head clearing mountain air and big, high altitude scenery. Speaking more to detail, the sensational XC (cross-country) singletrack here is unquestionably friendly for any moderately skilled mountain biker. Ride amongst pines and Aspen forests, around stunning mountain lakes, only to be whisked past mesmerizingly deep-red hoodoos.

From a personal-professional place, Brian Head represents our genesis; one of Escape Adventure’s maiden voyages. Please, come savor this original with us.

Day 1-2: Meet in St. George. Ride Brian Head Peak singletrack to Panguitch Lake. From lift access, transition to Dark Hollow Trail.
Day 3-4: Ride the entire Virgin River Rim Trail. The following day we start the day with the Navajo Lake singletrack then transition to Blowhard Mountain.
Day 5: From the top of Cedar City descend the fast and swooping C Trail.

Escape Adventures operates under a special use permit on the Dixie National Forest

First-Class Camping

Tents in Meadow

The food tastes better, the sky is certainly bigger, and your mind is clearer.

There is nothing better than rolling into camp to fresh made chips and salsa, homemade guacamole, and Dutch oven enchiladas. Then making your way to a sweet and inviting campfire, sharing your favorite anecdote or image from the day’s activities while marshmallows roast. Inside your tent: a sturdy raised cot, fluffy sleeping bag, and a plush full size pillow. Wow. You earned this. Sweet dreams.

We choose well-maintained public campgrounds with scenic vistas and comfortable arrangements. You’ll move seamlessly from one day of your trip to the next, camping outdoors and enjoying wildly healthy, delicious homemade meals.

The majority of our selected campgrounds feature indoor facilities and showers. Conversely, in more remote backcountry camping scenarios, we’ll provide portable toilets and private solar showers.

Camping gear may be rented or you may bring your own. All of our camping gear is tested and hand-chosen from top manufacturers to ensure you get a good nights’ sleep. Our camp gear package includes a tent, sleeping pad, raised cot, sleeping bag, sleeping bag liner, full size pillow, and ground tarp.

While we do our best to bring you the above hotel accommodations, lodging may vary depending on your departure date. Call us at 1.800.596.2953 for more details.

Specialized Full Suspension Mountain Bike ($70/day)

This new Specialized Full Suspension bike is the best bang for your buck! This bike features 140 mm of front and rear travel, which is plenty of cushion to soak up any bump in the trail.

With the Specialized Carbon Stumpjumper, we’ve bottled up that “new bike day” feeling and put it into a radical new trail bike so agile, so lively, so in-tune with the trail, that it feels like an extension of your body. Levitate up the climbs. Decimate the descents. The Stumpjumper is going to make you rethink how a trail bike should ride.

The highest level of responsibility, good nature, integrity, and dedication are standard traits of all those who work at Escape Adventures. We our proud of it and we think you should know it.

The Best Support Vehicles

Having custom-made vehicles allows us to take you to places few other outfitters can, or will go. Every Escape Adventures tour is accompanied by at least one support vehicle, trailer, and in some cases a second and third transfer van. After purchase, we custom engineer our trucks, vans, and trailers by our on-staff mechanic to meet the unique needs of different tours. For example, certain trucks are specifically designed for The White Rim and The Maze, while others are designed for The Grand Tetons and Yellowstone. Each of our guides is required to be trained in safe vehicle operation, 4X4 driving, and basic maintenance. Our experienced guides make it look easy, transporting you and up to 12 guests, along with their bikes, fresh food, camping gear and plenty of drinking water to a remote location.

Brian Head Escalante 6 day Beyond expectations. Mountain bike trails were phenomenal, food was even better. We joked that next year we will bring our wives so that they can learn how to cook while we learn how to mountain bike. Tim and Irving were simply awesome. The fact that we are already planning our 2017 trip says a lot about Escape Adventures. - Michael B - 9/18/2016
