I’ve been told by others that Chinaman gulch may be too much for my rig if I want to avoid damage. Probably won’t have my skid plates installed by then.
Wanted to share an example to store your safety gear that keeps it within easy reach. A set of molle panels, which are available from several different vendors for the 4Runner, work well. This is on my 4th gen and allows me to carry fire extinguishers (with quick release mounts), first aid kit...
You could drive to Idaho Springs and eat somewhere like Westbound & Down Brewing Company, if you can get a seat. Then drive up Virginia Canyon Rd (279) to Central City for a rural drive with pretty views and a little snow. From there you could gamble in Central City, explore more, or easily get...
Good tips Neal, thanks!
Whatever we do will be a good time. I can bring some firewood and assume that if it’s fine to have a campfire there’s no need to bring my propane campfire.
On Sunday I’d say I’ll probably cut loose by 2 so I’m home around dark but depends on what kind of fun we find.
Hey all. Some of us came into the park on Medano Pass and it’s fun, narrow, and not hard. We are going to Zapata Falls after breakfast for most of us then coming back and in afternoon, some may want to go up Medano, some hiking, dunes.
We’ll drive by the coordinates I posted on the RP on the way...
The website said the campground should open today at noon and three of us are headed down Should be there around 6. We will be at campsites 85, 86 and 87
I currently see 7 rigs going because I haven’t seen a response from @Dumbo jk .
Got a call back from GSNP Ranger this morning. They’re now hoping Piñon Flats campground will be open tomorrow or Friday. If it’s not the dispersed camping hasn’t been too full up Medano and there is also dispersed...
I’d like to find out how many of you were planning to camp at Piñon Flats campground since we can’t count on it being open by next weekend?
Are you planning to camp Fri and Sat, or which day?
Yes, I was planning to include more adventures around as people show interest to see if some want to...
It looks like the snow this week caused enough damage that they’ve closed the Piñon Flats campground for cleanup. There isn’t an ETA listed to reopen it. Medano Pass Road and the park is open but unknown if there are downed trees along the trail. I’ll keep an eye on the campground status next...
I can’t remember who asked about dispersed sites along the trail but that could certainly be an option. I’m not sure how it would work with the meet point to start down by the campground but I’m sure we could stop for people that need to claim a campsite if they find one. We should have time to...
I reserved 3 campsites early on when i knew a few were committing to go. That’s why I posted that the sites in the campground reserve quickly if people want to camp there. I haven’t looked lately to see if anything is open still. After Carlo and I drove around Idaho Springs looking for dispersed...
