Dakan Rd. CO, again

Myself, Ric, Chris, Glen, and Donny hit Dakan road again. We had a great time and did some hard lines again. It turned into a long night but it was a blast none the less. I have more video than pics. Maybe Ric will throw some up.

Chris took these from about 40 feet up in a tree. What a view.




Some video action:

Just so everyone knows the hard part is optional and is a bypass. The normal route is rocky but very easy. This trail can be done in any stock truck with some spotting in one or two place. I've seen a first timer in a stock escape make it.

Nice! Where is Dakan Road? Is that down south somewhere?

Edit: nevermind - I just found the link in your other thread.

Here's a couple of more pics


Chris up in the tree






Ric getting some tilt




You can see the clino in this one. I think he had it pegged before I got there




Corey's arch was 5 feet from the ground.






There's more than just rocks to crawl out there IMHO. It's nice to be with some wheelers that like to enjoy every part of the trip.




It's hard to take photos when wheeling like this is going on. I get sucked in and forget to take the shot.




A great day for sure. I'd be a liar if I told someone I didn't love it here.

I'm suprised that I didn't see you guys down there. I went down with a small group Sunday afternoon. We took some pics at the same spots.

Maybe they went on Monday ?

If anyone goes (or wants to go) wheeling on a Sunday afternoon, send me a PM the day before. This trail looks like a lot of fun....never heard of it before untill now.
