umm nice ... little more info would be nice

 

Cory,
thankx for starting the thread, Ill add a few of mine later today.
It was great wheeling with you, are you ready for this weekend ? lol (I am)

Elton, Yankee hill is a fairly easy trail here in the Denver area, most wont run it due to it being real easy, but in the first and third pic, is a Rock Garden, if you can call it that, its harder than the real Yankee Hill Trail, thats why we ran it, it was fun. again Ill post up more later, Ive got to run.
thankx again Cory.

 

ric is that ur 4runner ?

 

yes, the black one is mine.. the blue one belongs to Oleg its pretty cool has a 2001 frame and engine (3.4L w/SC) with an 85 body

 

since most of you have seen lots of pics from Yankee Hill, I didnt take many pics at all, but heres a few.
Cory is such a POSER, lol:
how was that wine ? lol
And Urey from Iribis off-road
He didnt know that we was going to be there, he had planned on parking at the trail head, and do some hiking, but decided to join us, Glad he did.
Heres Jamie, in the so called Rock Garden:

and Chris:

 

Nice pics, looks like fun!

Can anyone provide a link with directions to Yankee Hill or know the GPS coordinates to the trail head via google earth?

I've been google and yotatech searching but can't find anything usefull. Is there another name for it?
I'm planning on going up there tomorrow night...

 

Using http://www.topozone.com/ to search for Yankee Hill, it looks like you'd be looking for the one in Gilpin county.

Looks to me like you could take exit 238 off I-70 (35 miles west of Denver), which is CR 275 or Fall River Road... from there, generally procede to 39.829°N, 105.621°W. ... or you might get closer before taking CRs, by going up HWY 119...

Better make sure this is the "right" Yankee hill... LOL
