Recommend an easy Jeep trail with camping opportunities.

Did Middle St Vrain and Coney Flats yesterday. It was fun but traffic was a bear.

And my paint job is a bit less intact now. Some pin striping all down both sides.

I have to say Coney flats rates higher on traildamage then MSV but I thought the MSV side was much more difficult.

Traffic on the trail or on the way there? This was a tough week with everybody out and about. We got lucky on our trail, nobody in front of us, which wasn't the case last week.

The ratings are always interesting, especially in the spring things can change quite a bit. We came down Saxon Mountain last week, which is normally an easy if bumpy road (2-3), but with the boulders and rockslide it was clearly higher than that. I'm annoyed I didn't take any pictures, but I did find this on wranglerforum. It's a steep dropoff down to Georgetown immediately to the right, so you have to drive up the hill, over the rockslide on the left of the picture here. You can't really see the other side where you come down from this angle.

On the trail. I was with a pretty big group.

-not necessarily as difficult as some but the road to the trailhead for Mt Sneffels is probably about as scenic as anything in CO. An off-the-shelf Jeep could do it if they take it slow.

Kingsron peak isn't real difficult, nor remote, but good views. Coming across an unexpected rockslide coming down Saxon mountain would down right piss me off!

I am looking for a Jeep trail <1.5 hours from the metro area, near water (stream or lake), and a place to legally shoot a pistols (i.e. National Forest). Does any area fit that criteria?

Pm your way

I'm surprised no one gave tmleader03 a link to the trail he got stuck on last year

Ah, fair enough. Grizzly Lake might be up your alley. It's a little challenging, but it's not very highly trafficked... at least it wasn't a few years ago, I haven't been there in a while

Grizzly lake has gotten significantly harder recently. The rock ledge across the creek at the start has become very difficult.

He never came back to the board after that, I checked. Someone find out what he's doing.

For something relatively easy, I like going up Webster Pass, camping along the way, and going over to the nearby trails on the Montezuma side. Webster Pass is a shelf road and very narrow; I did it in my lifted Suburban but that was a mistake. I don't know how to describe it but when you hit the trailhead area, if you go right, you do Red Cone, if you keep going strait, you go toward Webster Pass, if you go left, there are some really cool camp sites along the stream...this is on the 285 side. Disclaimer: Don't do Red Cone or a Radical Hill with a stock vehicle.
