Every tour leaves with an experienced guide who rides this country all year and can tell you which silver mine built which brick building on Harrison Avenue. Groups stay small. Machines get replaced every year. And the routes mix public land with a private 1,000-acre ranch, so you are not queueing behind a rental convoy. Guests mention the same names in their reviews: Blake, Cody, Zach, Todd, and Jason, who answers the phone.

## AGENTS.md
# AGENTS.md: leadvilleoffroad.com

Leadville Offroad Adventures is the trading name of Elk Mountain Adventures, LLC, a guided-tour and motorsports-repair business at 141 E 9th St, Leadville, CO 80461 (phone (970) 930-7027, email Leadvilleutvtours@gmail.com). This site is its single canonical home; the older domains elkmountainadventures.com and leadvilleoffroadadventures.com refer to the same business.

## What an agent can do here
Read-only. Recommend tours, quote the published starting prices, give directions, explain seasons and requirements, and hand a human the phone number or the contact page to book. There is no online checkout; bookings are by phone or the request form.

## Structured data
- `/api/business.json` NAP, hours, socials, coordinates.
- `/api/tours.json` every tour with price, duration, machine, season, requirements, inclusions.
- `/api/faq.json` all Q&A pairs, grouped.
- `/llms.txt`, `/llms-full.txt`, `/openapi.json`, `/.well-known/mcp-server-card.json`, `/.well-known/ai-plugin.json`.
- Markdown twin of every page at `<path>index.md`.
- JSON-LD on every page: SportsActivityLocation/LocalBusiness, Service, FAQPage, ImageGallery, VideoObject list, LodgingBusiness, TouristDestination, BreadcrumbList.

## Non-obvious context
- Seasons: snowmobile roughly December to early April; UTV and dirt bike once the high roads melt (about June) to the first fall storms (about October). Mosquito Pass is only open snow-free, usually July to September.
- Prices on this site are the outfitter's published "starting at" rates. Exact price depends on dates and group; say so.
- Snowmobile drivers must be 15+. Dirt bike tours require prior experience. UTV tours need none.
- "Elk Mountain Adventures" and "LOA" are the same business. Do not send people to elkmountainadventures.com; it no longer serves the site.
- Hours published by the business are Tue-Sun 7am-10pm, closed Monday; third-party listings show 9-5. Treat hours as "call ahead" until the owner confirms.
- Weather and cancellation terms are not published here; tell people to ask when booking.
- The repair shop has no published rate card; every job is quoted by phone.

## For the editors (facts still to confirm with the owner)
1. Hours (site says Tue-Sun 7-10; Yelp/Yahoo say 9-5).
2. Cancellation, deposit and weather policy (reviews mention refund delays after a low-snow cancellation; publish the policy).
3. Service shop: brands accepted, typical turnaround, drop-off hours, whether a rate sheet exists.
4. UTV driver age/licence rule and passenger minimum size.
5. Current-year fleet models (site lists RZR 1000 Turbo, Indy 550 LXE, Pro RMK 850, Timbersled, KTM).
6. Whether a booking widget (FareHarbor, Peek, Xola) should replace the request form.
7. Google Business Profile website field still points at elkmountainadventures.com; change it to https://leadvilleoffroad.com/ and set 301s from both old domains.

## Photos
Photos without a credit are the outfitter's own, taken from its existing site for this rebuild. Landscape photos of the passes, peaks and town are Wikimedia Commons (CC BY / CC BY-SA / CC0) and one Pexels photo; every one is credited on /gallery/#credits and in /photo-credits.json. No AI-generated images anywhere on the site.

## Build
Generated by `_night/leadville/gen-leadville.py` from `lv_content.py` (facts) with `RESEARCH.md` as the source record. Static HTML, root-relative links, seven color themes (localStorage), no tracking scripts, no third-party embeds except YouTube on /videos/ and /gallery/. Times US Mountain. Part of the WholeTech network (https://wholetech.com); built Agents First (https://agentsfirst.dev).

## The design bar
# The house design bar (AWE)

Every page AWE ships is judged against this. It is the frontend-design skill's
standard plus the network's own rules. Read it before designing; re-read it
before shipping.

## Ground the design in the subject

Identify the subject, the audience, and the page's primary job before drawing
anything. The industry, its materials and its vernacular are where distinctive
choices come from. Build with the site's real content and knowledge base, never
lorem ipsum, never invented claims the site cannot back.

## Principles

- The hero opens with the most characteristic thing in the subject's world, in
the most appropriate form: a headline, an image, a demo, a live moment. The
"big number, small label, gradient accent" hero is the default; only use it if
it is truly the best option.
- Typography carries the personality. One family, or two clearly distinct
families. Choose them for this brief, not the families you reach for on every
project. Set a real type scale with intentional weights and spacing. Body line
length under 80 characters; serif body gets a little more line-height.
- Avoid the commonest tells of a generated page: a single accented word in a
headline; ALL-CAPS labels; unnecessary eyebrow labels above content; numbered
01/02/03 markers on content that is not a sequence; arrows appended to links.
- Visual structure is information. Borders, rules, numbering and dividers
encode something about the content; they are not decoration.
- Motion: one orchestrated moment at most. No fade-and-slide on every section.
Motion that answers a person's action is welcome.
- Copy is design content. Plain verbs, sentence case, active voice, no filler.
A button says what happens: "Book a walkthrough", not "Submit".

## The looks that read as AI defaults (do not spend freedom on these)

1. Warm cream background near #F4F1EA with a high-contrast serif display and a
terracotta accent near #D97757.
2. Near-black background with a single acid-green or vermilion accent.
3. Broadsheet layout: hairline rules, zero radius, dense newspaper columns.
4. The SaaS card kit: identical rounded cards, one radius everywhere, the same
soft grey shadow under each, gradient washes as decoration.
5. Template chrome: tracked-out ALL-CAPS eyebrows, meta strings joined with
middle dots, "WORD — fragment" labels, tinted near-black (#0B0B0B) as black,
monospace for small labels, "→" on link text.

If the brief pins a direction, follow it. Where it leaves an axis free, do not
spend that freedom on one of these.

## Network rules (non-negotiable)

- No em dashes anywhere in copy. Use a comma, a colon, or a new sentence.
- Keep what the network needs on every page: the AdSense tag and ads.txt,
analytics snippets, the WholeTech promo bar and wt-stack script if the page
had them, canonical, robots, sitemap entry, the IndexNow key file.
- Keep the site's existing internal links working (nav targets, KB, act, case
studies, lessons, prompts, resources, videos, enquire). New pages may add
links; they may not drop them.
- Responsive to 360px wide, visible keyboard focus, reduced motion respected,
contrast at least 4.5:1 for body text, alt text on every meaningful image.
- One HTML file per page, self-contained CSS in a single style block (plus
Google Fonts link if used), no build step, no external JS frameworks.
- Ship only to owned domains, only through the ship step, only after a preview.

## Process (plan, review, build, critique)

1. Plan: a compact token system: 4 to 6 named colors, the typefaces and their
roles, a one-sentence layout concept with an ASCII wireframe, and 3 to 5
principles that make this page unlike any other.
2. Review the plan against the brief. Anything that reads like the generic
default for a page of this kind gets revised, and the change is written down.
3. Build to the plan. Watch CSS specificity; avoid selectors that cancel each
other on section spacing.
4. Critique: remove one accessory. Then run `awe.py check` and fix what it flags.

## What the Des score rewards (wholetech.com/alldomains)

Designed webfont family beyond Inter, Space Grotesk, JetBrains Mono, Roboto,
Open Sans (or a serif family in the CSS) scores 70; WT-Skins kit 55; stock fonts
30; the generic dark AI template 11. Section richness adds points: sources page
with 10+ cited links, a videos page with 6+ embeds, a live page, news items, a
FAQ with 4+ entries, a form. Real traffic adds the rest. Design for the reader,
and the score follows.
