BPX Trip – BPX 4-Day: Chicago Basin from Needleton Flagstop

This four-day expedition into the remote Chicago Basin provides an opportunity to experience one of Colorado’s most iconic alpine environments while minimizing the logistical challenges of access through a ride on the historic Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad. Establishing a backcountry base camp allows participants to tailor the experience to their abilities and goals, with options ranging from demanding ascents of multiple 14,000-foot peaks to exploratory hikes among alpine lakes, tarns, and high mountain passes. The combination of wilderness travel, flexible daily objectives, and the rugged beauty of the San Juan Mountains makes this trip an exceptional blend of mountaineering challenge and alpine exploration.
