Looking for advice:
I am considering taking a trip to Copper Canyon in February and have several questions:
Is this a good time to go?
Is it necessary to go through a guide company, or can one travel the canyon without one?
How long a trip should I plan? I am in good condition and live and ride at elevation.
Is there lodging available on a walk-in basis?
Are there any other ideas for a BETTER trip?

Thanks in advance for taking the time to help me out!

Good idea...

I'll make a sticky for "Mexico Riding Spots"... Copper Canyon and Puerto Vallarta questions come up each vacation season.

To the OP... You may want to get informed on the weather for February. Chihuahua's winters are HARSH... Subfreezing temps and dry weather.

Aw, come on guys- don`t go and do that! If you link up all the Copper Can posts and pics together I`ll never be able to get off the internet.

Please do! As a Canadian who has never been to Mexico, I would find it very helpful. Would love to visit during winter, and much prefer a mountain biking vacation over lying on the beach.
