Reserve your side-by-side! When booking, select your preferred pickup or delivery option. Free pickup is available at our Salida location. We also offer delivery to St. Elmo $100 (private property drop-off only), Buena Vista ($65), or directly to the Aspen Ridge or Marshall Pass trailhead ($50). We’ll contact you the day before your reservation to confirm details.

On the morning of your reservation, we’ll meet around 8:00 AM to complete any remaining paperwork, provide a brief safety demo, and review side-by-side and trailer operation.

If you’re picking up from our shop, you’ll tow the trailer and side-by-side to your destination. If you chose trailhead drop-off, your side-by-side will be waiting at the trailhead—no towing required. Click here for the best ATV/ UTV trails near Salida.
