I am off wed and thur the 28th and 29th, and want to do some wheeling. I live in colorado springs, so i don't wanna go too far but am willing to drive. anybody interested. if so what trail, and when

 

exact same question?? haha
i live in the springs too =)

 

how about this coming weekend( nov. 6, sunday) ??? i was thinking about doing eagle rock or sran wrap? this would be a good chance to sneek in some last mininte wheeling before the snow flies. im open to others that arnt too challanging. i,ve got a locker but no skid plates or sliders. let me know. ill try and get some people from www.colorado4x4.org to come also, but they are mostly jeep guys and ide rather wheel with my own kind.

 

How far is colorado springs from summit county? I can maybe go.

 

what time are ya thinking about meeting up ?
http://www.traildamage.com/trails/index.php?id=39 looks fun.

 

summit county is about 2.5 hours away from the springs. im open to when we meet, preferably in the morning sometime around 9 30 ish. the later we go the more of a chance we'll run into bad weather.
here is some more pics of the trail, back when i had open diffs i had to be winched up one part. http://users.adelphia.net/~trixyscj5/eaglerock.htm

 

if anyone else from the Denver area wants to go, im in, if not ill just stay up here, it does look like a fun run. hope others will post up

 

hey just saw the replies :o

i'm not sure if this sunday will work for me.
i'm stock with the rr locker.... so until i get some sliders on, i don't think this trail looks too friendly for me. i'd rather not have to do some bodywork yet

I'll be in parker this weekend, but i have no problem driving back...

 

well if the timing will work for you and if you want to come i have done this trail in a stock 1993 4runner with open diffs. i was winched up one section that i couldnt get up. the only damamge happened to me triing the section i couldnt do. we had put some rocks where my front tire was lifting and when my tire came down spinning it threw the rocks up and dented my door. there is one nasty section that i wouldnt try unless i had sliders but it has a bypass.

 

awesome.
if you get some details worked out, i'll be there *shrug*
anyone gonna have a winch? haha

holy crap, this is that trail off of gold camp? i'm pretty sure i did that in my stock 95 LOL
i went down, instead of up the area you're talking about... no damage i also had bald tires...

 

i was thinking of meeting at the home depot on lake ave. at around 9:30?
sounds good to everyone?

 

lake? is that what circle turns into? hmph...
where is everyone meeting at from denver?

 

yes circle goes south and lake runs west. but same road

 

ok maybe we wont go. we just got a suprise snow storm thats pretty small down here but im guessing its pretty good sized higher up in elevation. but ill go part way up and check it out. i am not too fond of triing that trail witha foot of snow on the ground.

 

awwww whats a little snow ??
ill be heading up to vail this afternoon, im hoping there is lots of the white stuff.

 

lemme know what you find out... today if you wouldn't mind =)

 

ok we are going to go ahead and go and see how the snow is. i dont want to do eagle rock if theres a foot of snow. im not feeling the body damage. so if there is a bunch of snow we'll just hit some other trails. so are any of you guys coming? Ric you better come. you have my favorate runner

 

well co4x4 is down for upgrades...
so i take it you're going to go up there anyways?
would it be just you and I, or are more going? if we hit up light trails, i'm not going to pull the running boards now...
thanks!

 

well it all depends on the amount of snow thats up there. if thre is a little snow then ide like to do eagle rock. but if there is a lot then i just want to hit some of the easier ones. i dont want to use the brail method of 4 wheeling if rocks are buried under a foot of snow. it is totally up to you if you want to remove the running boards. if we end up doing a trail that you think would endanger your body then ide be more then happy to turn around and play on some other trails. as of now it just looks liek you and me and my friend mike with a lifted cherokee with balding tires and no lockers. ill check the colorado4x4 forum and see if anyone has showed any interest.

 

alright, took 10min and removed my runningboards...
if there's heavy snow, my gear's in storage... so if your friend gets stuck... i'm not wading over in the powder to get him (kidding, just saying my liners and boots are in storage :p )
my cell is 7194326044. I'll be at homedepot at 9:30am (ouch... am! lol)

i'm the green 3rd gen if you didn't know...
