Why?
Super fun mountain biking a five minute ride away at Phil’s World!

Great weather, year round.
Snow that melts off the roads, not off the forested x-c ski trails.
Scary fun mountain biking close by for 3.5 seasons, with more trails developed yearly.
Getting hot? Head uphill to the La Platas, Dolores area, Lizard Head.
Getting cold? Head downhill to Sand Canyon, Bluff, or Moab.
A growing foodie culture (pun intended):
FIVE micro-breweries within 20 minutes.
A real Farm to Table movement - apple and pear orchards, artisanal cheeses, fresh organics at the three nearby Farmer’s Markets, even home made ice creams.
Amazing restaurants. Several committed, professional chefs have found Cortez is affordable - check out their varied cuisines!
Culture:
More Ancestral Puebloans lived here a few hundred years ago than all of us now. Learn! Volunteer!
