Decent easy trails close to Denver?
I'm looking for a trail to take my stock '86 4Runner on. I live in Denver, and have a little wheelin' experience. I tried slaughter house with it, but turned around at the summit when I saw the 1' pot holes. So, are there any semi-chellenging trails close to Denver that anyone knows about?

Your rig should handle Slaughterhouse fine ...
Trails to look at that are easier than Slaughterhouse:
Dakan Rd
Bunce School Rd
Switzerland Trail
Bill Moore/Mill creek (called Empire Loop)

I hear ya. All it takes is one inexperienced yahoo to spin out a hole. I guess it's just human nature to give it more gas when one does not actually know how to pick a line. Wheeling is by far one of my favorite things to do and I greatly appreciate the work that good wheelers, tree lovin groups, and the forest service does to maintain the trails and keep them open. Thanks for all of you that do the same! I'm not a big fan of wheeling alone, but if I were there, I probably would have turned around too. Better to save the trail for another day than to get stuck, damage your rig, or worse get hurt.
