Buena Vista Trip...May 25-29th...Need Help...
Hey guys,
My wife and I are planning to go riding in Buena Vista leaving our house in Fort Collins, CO Thursday evening and riding Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, then heading back after we wake up on Monday to give us time to unload and relax back home on Monday.
It will be our second time there, and we're planning to take her KX100 dirtbike, the Ranger, and our dogs. We're going to stay at the Arrowhead Point Resort in Buena Vista, and they were nice anough to allow 4 dogs for us.
Anybody have any recommendations on what trails to ride? The weather should be fantastic, and I can't wait to hit the trails there. It's going to be awesome!

The one at Tellico was my Dad's, and I'm going to buy mine this weekend. I can't resist after riding his, and with memorial day weekend just around the corners it's perfect.
Crux, that's good to know, but I imagine there's no showers around there, huh!
Well, after calling about 40 places, both campgrounds and hotels, there's nothing available, so we're going to stay at the Arrowhead Point Resort in Buena Vista and hit the trails down there instead.
Anybody have any recommendations on awesome scenic trails that we can hit? I'd love to see wheeler lake, but I'm afraid they'll still be a ton of snow on the ground. The Ranger will wade through a decent amount but her dirtbike is worthless.

It was a blast, and I just emailed the guy that bought my 4runner and told him whenever the time comes to sell it I want it back. After riding with all you guys, taking pics, watching videos from past trips, I really miss having it already. I spent so much time and have such great memories in it, I want it back in whatever condition, mileage and age. So whenever that happens will be a nice day!

Ok, dude, but you're not getting your rims back. I like them too much.
