I was just told that Kellys might be open this weekend.

Hey im new to the site and came across this....... I would like to join you guys depending on (Work/Difficulty of trail). My x is stock other than a set of Bf mud tires...

Welcome to the forum. Looks like your a third gen, I've never wheeled with one could be interesting on a few of the trails. Kelly flats you could do easy. And Lefthand should be able to do other than that leaning ledge (tippy tree) that could be interesting, but could get it through Same rough spot for my rig to not being able to flex up front leans you into that tree. Careful and slow and should be no problems

Hell yeah if Kelly Flatts gets opened up. Please let us know what you hear. And as far as 3rd gen wheeling, i was suprised by what they can do. It takes a good driver with a VERY good line, but that's true about most of wheeling. I went with one that has 31's and 2" spacers (top pic in the "notices" bulletin on the home page) and he held his own through the Ouray trip. The nice thing about Colorado trails is they have a good number of obsticle bypasses for Jeeps, errrr i mean stockers .

Ya i know its not built to wheel to hard but i would like to put it to the test and see how it does....... without doing to much damage (trying to buy a lift and i do not need any set backs . Let me know what you guys decide and we can go from there.

Looks like its supposed to rain there this weekend, hope it stays warm enough that it doesn't add any snow!

Not necessarily Northern Colorado but for anyone interested in some harder-core wheeling, the RMFTC group is doing chinamans and camping the weekend of June 10th, it's an annual trip and usually lots of fun

Lefthand have a gate? I believe its in a different district. Ill chen tomorrow what district its in.

 

[nssj2]

I don't remember lefthand having a gate, as I don't think it's in a natural forest. Definitely let me know if you hear anything, but its looking like that's where we are going to end up going

 

[Stang5lgt]

Lefthand is like Slaughterhouse gulch it never closes. It is low enough elevation that you don't have to worry about the Weather.

There is guy on one of the Jeep forums that has run the last 4 weekends in a row.

Awesome! I'm so excited been 6 months since i have been wheeling hard. Will be great to meet some of the forum guys and put names with faces to. It will be me and my wife coming down from Laramie. Or coming up I should say, I'll be in Parker CO the night before.

We decided on Saturday the 23rd it looks like, and will run Left Hand Canyon.
Left Hand Canyon

I believe these three will be there for sure.

Think that was everyone that has posted.

 

[nssj2]

sweet! Unfortunately I couldnt get off work the whole day, so as long as I can plan to be off the trail around 5, I'm still good to go

 

[turboexplorer]

Don't see any reason why that wouldn't work!

 

[nssj2]

Checking in to see if anyone has preferences on a meeting time and place for Saturday. I was thinking around 9-10am, either at the trail head or somewhere in Boulder.

 

[offroader_69_me]

wish I could but not gonna make this trip

 

[turboexplorer]

There will be more trips! And no preferences on where to meet never been there. And I'm game for any time. 9-10 sounds great and works for me.
