CASCADE, Colo. (KDVR) — You might say Rockhound ATV Tours is a one-woman show: Melissa Kraus owns the place and was our tour guide for the day.
“Right now we are on the main trail right here, this is kind of like the highway that leads to everything else and then we’re actually gonna turn down onto Manchester Creek Road,” said Kraus.
Oh sure, you can call it a road, but we might be using that term loosely today.
“Some of them are a little bit more narrow, some of them are kind of like nice and open and well graded,” said Kraus.
Twenty-eight-year-old Melissa Kraus moved to Colorado in 2020, worked at Rockhound ATV for five years, and now she owns it.
We were cruising the Pike National Forrest, where over 30 miles of trails challenge you to explore and discover places.
“Just like this one. I think the best part is getting to run around and explore. We are at Manchester Creek, here it’s super fun,” said Kraus.
Now, if you don’t feel like it, they will drive. But if you do feel like it, just get behind the wheel. If you can drive a car, you’re good to go.
Six ATVs, three side-by-sides and other guides at Rockhound are there to make sure you, well, are making some good memories.
For Kraus, in our humble opinion, this has to be the best job in Colorado. Does she actually get paid for this?
“No, they just stopped paying me years ago. I just keep showing up,” said Kraus
And so will we.
