US Rocky Mountain Colorado Rigs & Coffee - 03/30/2019

I am trying to get my rig ready for the summer. I would like to put something together as a weekend trip. (Friday night/Saturday night) Once my rig is road worthy. I was thinking Four Mile area near Buena Vista. That area would be a great location to put together something early in the season. Also would be a great starting point for a multi-day Overland trip in the area. there are plenty of trails to take over mountain passes, Like from St. Elmo via Tincuo pass and also Hancock Pass and much more. Would make for a fun time. (dispersed camping along the way). They won't be open until late June/early July.

You can forget TinCup for this year according to the Forrest Service. The have had severe avalanche damage and a good portion of the road has been damaged. Last report I got, they thought it would be hard to even get to the damage due to the amount of snow, much less be able to get it fixed this year.

One of my other favorites, Tomache, is also closed due to a slide and its prognosis is not good.

Hey Fellas, are there any trips planned for the near future? Last we talked we were hoping for a June/July trip. I'd love to help in any way I can to set something up. I'm not familiar with CO so I don't really know where to go, but still happy to help. I look forward to meeting up again and getting out there!

I am down for a day trip or overnight. Also check out a new app called COTREX. It was put out by state of Colorado for all state and federal land use for everything from hiking to 4x4 trails

There is one this weekend meeting up in South Central Utah : Camping and Exploring Capitol Reef NP - Utah - Look for OB Flag off Notam-Bulldog road
If you can bug out today you can still make it. Should be an awesome trail ride and campout, Did a very similar trip 2 years ago over Memorial Day weekend and had a great time.

Another is coming together for later in June for the Front Range: Colorado Front Range Camp out Meetup

You can check for other rides, rallys, and campouts for the region under the Rally Point tab for the Rocky Mtn. Region --- Events Archive - Overland Bound
