Andrewd are those snow pics down by jefferson? If so we broke trail to the clearing like a week ago! Grizzly Lake is a pretty gnarly trail, I have done it on my atv. Those other ones are Bill Moore Lake/ Mill Creek.

Here is my rig, she aint real pretty but she sure wheels damn good.

My buddy with his '84, and my 85 on Twin Cone Peak on Kenosha Pass.

Slaughterhouse, Crow Loop on the front side.

More Slaughterhouse.

Elk Hunting Kenosha Pass 2010.

Same water hole.



I will have more as soon as I find my other pic cd's

How do I get the big pics? I can't figure out how to do it without the thumbnails or hotlinks.

Earlier this year on Holy cross on 33's, but post links/flatbelly

French Creek:







Ledge on Holy Cross



Old chinamans gulch from before the most recent morph, no flatbelly and still on leafsprings:

God I miss CO!! Lived in Fort Fun for 8 years then Denver then Englewood. Now we live in PA

Looking at moving back to summit county next year.

This time I will have 4wd. When I lived out there last I had a 78 2wd 22re with studded pireeli snow and muds all around. Took all the passes fine but never wheeled in it much.

You all have great rust free rides out there. I miss it!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks! We ran Black Bear Pass and another trail that is only open for the month of July (I forget the name). It was a good time.

Iron Chest. A while ago.


Upper Iron Chest, Mt. Princeton in the background.


Chinaman's, a while ago. Original body, pre-roll.


Whale Rock, Chinaman's, brand new body.


Chinaman's, new body. Built tube guards for rear fenders, front ones were still in process.


Chinaman's again, same day, rock garden. One of my fav shots.

Thanks for the kind words, StarsNBars. Sadly the body shop that did an amazing job is now out of bidness.

I ran OCG on this past Sat. First time taking the LC out and it was awesome! I have HeftyFabworks prototype sliders and a HeftyFabworks winch bumper and they performed flawlessly. I have no lift and I'm running stock tires, so needless to say, I used the sliders a lot! I also made some simple bumperettes for the rear. These will probably be removed and reworked, but they did their job.
The line up. I'm running 265's which were the smallest in the group by about 4".

This hill is always scarier/steeper than it looks...

Especially once you drop into this hole...

Playin' in the rocks...

Nice bumper and sliders.
I'm sure my wife would kill me if I took the new 4runner out wheeling!
All in time! I can't wait to upgrade to a newer vehicle so I can turn it into my wheeling rig.
