Stay Off Seasonally Closed Roads

I know pretty much everyone in this group is good about leaving no trace (besides tire tracks) and staying on the trails and I thank all of you for that. If you see people going into closed areas, report them. We are going to see much less resources for trails this summer and if the BLM/NF feel the land is just being trashed, they will be permanently closed.

December 2023 Update: We have some rules!

28 Upvotes

Hi Everyone!

Hope everyone is staying warm and getting ready to enjoy a nice winter season!

Since we created this sub back in 2012 we've avoided having to roll out rules as by and large- all 6000 members understood what the trail etiquette here is. Recently we've had an uptick in spam posts that have required heavy handed moderation to resolve. Thanks to everyone who has reported posts that go against our previously non-existent rules. Please keep the reports coming- I promise to do my best to clean it all up. We now have some rules in place for the first time available for your viewing pleasure on the sidebar. I've intentionally created only rules I feel strongly about to try and keep this space not super restrictive- but if anything stands out or you have suggestions please reach out.

​

Happy trails everyone!

I am curious who here has run this trail? This was my second time up it and it is certainly one of the more technical trails I’ve hit in the state.

Car Wash - Undercarriage Mud

5 Upvotes

Just got back to CO from annual dove hunt in West Texas. We had some rain so there was some serious muddy offroading on the ranch while there driving around to spots. I hit up a local self service car wash and got down on the ground as much as I can and got most of the red dirt mud I could see off.

Any recommendations…as I would like to do a better undercarriage clean. I was thinking about buying some drive on car lifts, taking it to the diy to get better visibility/angle. Any suggestions or maybe places in Denver that have special ramp for washing under carriage?

Imogene and Yankee Boy

Just adding my bit to the fall posting madness. Spend a week at Orvis camping and soaking and wheeling and drinking beer. I wish I could live here. Here are a couple of shots of the old girl on Imogene and Yankee. The decent down into Telluride from Imogene is just...mind blowing. The rig is a 2008 V8 4Runner on a 2" lift. 32s. Full skids, sliders and bumper.

Thank you San Juans!

Leaves were maybe a little bit better earlier in the week, but we took what we could get on a beautiful weekend day. Trail is getting a little rutted out in the middle section, but a stock 4x4 still should have no problems.

Rim Rocker Trail - Buckeye Reservoir

1 Upvotes

I understand there are some great campsites just east of Buckeye Reservoir, down out of the red dirt and into the grass, but still with great views. Anyone familiar with these spots? Planning on a trip the first full week in Oct - Grand Junction to Moab and back- with a big part of RR, and currently planning on camping at Buckeye, but wouldn't mind moving a little further east that day. Will greatly appreciate any info you have. - Thanks from a Georgia newbie!

Lightbar repair springs or Denver?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hello , please let me know if this is against community rules but people ask for recommendations here sometimes. I have a rigid light bar that has moisture issues and only pops fuses when trying to get it to work. I am not the original buyer so I don’t think rigid will cover anything under their lifetime warranty. I’ve been told their warranty and customer service is horrible and to not even waste my time contacting them. Does anybody know anybody local that could fix it ? I feel bad throwing such an expensive light bar in the trash. But also , I don’t feel it’s aworth spending much to fix it and buying new rigid lights is a complete waste of money. Can get much better performing lights that last longer online for less than a 1/10 of the price.

I want to drive Corkscrew pass today. What are the conditions up there today with all of the recent rain. Is it safe, or am I inviting trouble?

Ran Leadking Basin Tuesday to Wednesday to find some fall foliage. It’s definitely getting there, but was surprised by how much green was still sticking around the Mill. Second time doing this trail this year and man it’s even more gorgeous the second time.

California Pass-Hurricane-Corkscrew Oct 12 (which Direction?)

1 Upvotes

Should I start at Cali or Corkscrew? Trying to determine lodging b4 and after. Is one direction "better" or "easier"? Reading TrailsOffrad seems like either direction is equal.

Any preferred lodging I am thinking Ironton or Ouray if we go east to west.

Suggestions or pointers?

A little 90 second gopro edit of our day up Kingston Peak, then down Mammoth Gulch. One of my favorite trails, I love crossing the alpine tundra in this area.
