Re: Any co-ar15 members into "wheeling"?
I've done Kingston before, and I'd do it again. It's a longer trail, but climbs pretty high and has awesome views.Originally Posted by Irving

Lol, we did Chinns just last weekend. I even posted pictures of me on Chinns lake in this thread from last weekend. Chinns is definitely the best trail in the area I think.

The Empire loop is always a fun run, Red elephant, mill creek, and Bill Moore lake.

Can I do it stock?

Re: Any co-ar15 members into "wheeling"?
I did it with an 86 4runner on 31's. There are a few decent obstacles, but nothing that isn't either avoidable, or doable with a good spotter. Will you be in the Amigo?
Yes sir. Only has limited slip in the back and weak clearance. A good spotter should be fine. As long as I can get back out solo in case my wife wants to stay and hike around.

Re: Any co-ar15 members into "wheeling"?
Red elephant is the most difficult of the three trails, mainly because it's steeper. Limited slip would definitely help.
I don't want difficulty to deter anyone tho. That trail damage sight has some good pics and descriptions of the trails, so if a trail looks too difficult for anybody, we can keep looking. I'm also willing to go further South (285) or North Boulder, Longmont area.

The back end of my truck works pretty good. Has some kind of positrack setup or whatever GM used back then. The front end is open. I lack a bit in the ground clearance department since I a only running stock tires (265/75/16) and my wheel base is a little long for really tight turns.
The wife seemed a little excited too. She will probably tag along as well. Assuming we aren't dead tired from the ATV trip tomorrow.
Really?
Red elephant was easy peasey, just big hills. Mill Creek has a lot more ruts and rocks. There is going to be a lot of them up there for Bill Moore. I just I can find some place at Chinn's Lake. Hope to be there by 11am and get a spot.
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
