    Mountain biking

    The Alpine Station is an old restored rail station that sits at 11,253 feet in elevation. It was part of the Alpine Tunnel, which was the highest railroad tunnel in North America, connecting Denver to Gunnison. The tunnel is now sealed shut, but the nearby relics are a nice glimpse of the past.
