March will be a good time to visit much of UT, but the good stuff in CO will still be snowed in.

Consider making a plan and posting it as a Rally Point to invite others. Let me know if I can help.

I will but not sure of good places to go or routes. Was looking at MOAB but staying on level 3 trails incase I get new trailer want to build up to it. More for relaxing nice scenery med trails and making friends.

I'm sure you will have no shortage of recommendations for routes to run!

Do you have a specific time frame in March that you're limited to?

Don't overlook the fact that Colorado is a big state with the Rockies in the middle. You can easily burn up a lot of time going between locations.

I'm sure you'll see snow in Ouray as it will still be mostly winter there.

The Royal Gorge is close to me so let me know if you're interested in camping, trail info or a meetup. I was actually thinking of a camp out not far from there in March.
