Why choose MST Adventures for your gear rental?

MST Adventures offers high quality equipment that has proven itself over and over. We rent only the gear that we trust will provide a positive and unique experience for you. From our MSR Snowshoes to our NRS SUPs, our gear is tough as nails.

Why choose MST Adventures for instructional classes and private lessons?

MST Adventures' guides are nationally certified instructors in their sports and/or have extensive experience in that particular activity. Our guides and instructors are highly experienced not only in their activity, but in instruction as well. Our guides hold multiple certifications from the ACA, IMBA, are active participants at the competitive level and award-winning. 

What should I bring with me?

Whether you are taking a biking class, a water based class, or just picking up a rental, you should always plan for the weather by dressing in layers; in addition to packing plenty of high energy snacks, water, and sunscreen. Each class and activity will list required equipment based on the discipline and activity level. For any SUP trips on the river, we also recommend you wear shoes that will stay on your feet (no flip-flops). For all water-based tours, guides will have a dry bag available for keys and phones. If you’d like to take pictures with your phone, we highly recommend a waterproof phone case with a lanyard.

Do you rent bikes?

Yes, starting in the spring of 2023 we now have rental mountain bikes. We offer a limited selection of full suspension bikes for your adventures.

How physically fit should I be for my class?

We use a 1-5 scale for fitness, 1- being someone who doesn't actively work out, while 5 – is someone who works out 5+ days per week with cardio and weight training. Most of our trips fall into the 2-3 range, and each tour is adapted to that specific group. Check the event description for a relative fitness level.

I am interested in learning to Kayak/Stand-Up Paddle Board, but I have never Kayaked/SUP’ed before, do you have a class I can take?

Absolutely! we offer a Start Up SUP or Kayak class for those just getting started, and private instruction for those looking to build their advanced skills.

I signed up for a SUP/ Kayak Class, how should I dress?

We often suggest dressing to be wet. Chances are that on your first experience you will get fairly wet; after all it is a water sport. So dress in non-cotton clothes that are fast to dry. In the spring and fall we suggest that you wear polypropylene long johns or fleece type clothing. In the summer a bathing suit is applicable, with a change of clothes, to change into when you’re done along with a bath towel to dry off and warm up. Our water is mostly snow melt so it can be fairly chilly.

MST Adventures offers mountain biking clinics and private instruction in conjuction with The Bike Smith, LLC. of Albuquerque.

Do you take credit cards?
