By Cole Bangert Suspension is a crucial part of the setup for more aggressive and advanced snowmobile riders. It changes the entire feel of the machine. Over the past several years, I’ve been spoiled by Fox Racing Shocks and have learned why great suspension makes a world of difference. Correct suspension settings allow a…

One of the things we love most about our jobs here at Sage Outdoor Adventures is being a part of our customers’ experience in the mountains and some very memorable moments. Not all of those moments are this exceptional, but we recently had the opportunity to witness one of our customers proposing to his now…

We had  a great day, and had a pretty clean run in Gore, which is always a task in itself. It’s one of the harder class V runs in the country. Ended up second in the raft division, and already looking forward to next seasons racing. We are one of the only elite teams to…

What an incredible summer and fall we had at Sage. We hired ten new raft guides and boy did they work hard for us! After a rainy and snowy May, June and July were pretty epic months on Gore Creek, the Eagle, Ark, and Colorado Rivers. August proved to be just as fantastic on the…

It’s that time of year again! The crowds are coming to town for some holiday shenanigans and our Independence (okay, or maybe BBQ and beer) is on the minds of everyone. The water levels are fantastic right now and there’s no better way to see Vail and the festivities than on Gore Creek as parade…

It’s not hard to see it, all the rivers are pushing up the banks all over Colorado. The usual clear waters are now totally saturated with brown sediment, twigs, branches, trees, leaves, dog toys, soccer balls, and RAFTS. Talk to any boater about it, and that springtime smirk will come out. This is always an exciting time of year for all river lovers.

If the warm air mass reaches high enough elevations, rapid snow-melt could spike the river levels even more than we have already seen this spring….
