Yeah what ^he said.
I'm open to ideas. Havnt really set anything yet
I'd be up for it if A) I didn't have to replace the water pump in my Jeep sometime this weekend and B) I wasn't remodeling my bathroom :).

If you need a hand with the water pump I would be happy to help. If nothing else I could provide an extra set of hands, just let me know. The bathroom....well your on your own there...[ROFL3]
I might be down for some of that if you guys try out the Bailey area. Maybe slaughterhouse?
wish I was off during the weekends[Rant1][Rant1][Rant2][Rant2][Rant2][Rant2][Rant2]
wish I could fly planes on the weekends [Beer].

You have the map, pick a place, give us directions and a time. You are the trail boss on this one.

+1. One of my favorites sources for trails.
Yep traildamage.com is awesome.
Ok, let me see whats up and I will post up.
Red cone does look nice, that might be a good choice.
We went in the fall, at night. I really thought the trail was cool, but when we got toward the top, it was blizzarding really bad and the people who had done it before thought it would be suicide to try and actually go down the cone part. So I never got to see it from the top.

I think we may be able to join if it's not too far from Fairplay on Saturday- Staying up there for the weekend but have anniversary stuff on Sunday.
Oh and if it's passable by a leveled 97 4Runner w/ 31's.

I was eying your jeep glock21 tempting if I was not so broke from going to Sturgis and I need my ATV for plowing snow in the winter.
you could always use the jeep for plowing hahahaha

lol! Yeah it's the cost of the plow and putting it on the jeep that scares me much more than one for an ATV.
BTW: Sorry to not get back to you guys on a Taylor park trip But I am always in the mood for camping, wheeling, shooting so if you guys want to go again let me know I can haul ATV's in my trailer. Know of some cool places to go up near Leadville, Granite, Minturn, ie: Holy Cross Wilderness area. Also the Lost Creek Wilderness area just before Jefferson. Let me know if you guys want to plan one!
once i get a atv im all for it, i love atving

Me too! That is another reason why I want to keep my Rincon. Much cheaper and easier to repair a 4X4 ATV than a full size 4X4. Two Different games for sure! Let me know if you sell your Jeep I know of some sweet deals on some ATV'S right now. BTW: I am also a factory certified Harley & Honda Tech if want a deal on some wrenching , parts etc.

http://legacygt.com/forums/images/smilies/orly.gif I am looking for a ATV also but don't want to step in front of someone else. :)
no steping in front, if you have the cash your first buddy hahahaa. itll be a while till i can afford to buy one
Ok, so I am tentatively thinking about Johnny Park road, Pierson Park road and Pole hill, they can all be found on traildamage.com
We can do one, all or none of them and pick something else. These are all pretty easy, so if there is something a little more technical that someone thinks of thats cool too. Or there is Red Cone pass.
how far are they from the metro area

That plane & camera is really a nice setup. The motor can turn on/off with the propellers folding back for better gluiding.

Probably an hour and a half. Look them up on traildamage.com they have all the specs and maps there.

Any plans yet?
No real plans, someone pick something and I will meet you there. Guanella pass looks nice but I was hoping for something a little more technical, plus it is an hour and a hlaf from my house to the trail head.
You guys have a blast. My wifey came home with box seats for the Bronco's game tomorrow, so I guess I'll force myself to go and watch[Tooth].
Be safe.
I would like to try and rum Bill Moore Lake, if anyone is up for that.
Bill Moore is a nice run. I hunted up there about 10 years ago. No to scary, but it is steep.

Guanella was a bit crowded last weekend-kids are back in school might be quieter.
Can you shoot at Guanella?
yes, sir. National Forest.
