    Default Bunce is open



    It's officially open, according to the BRD road status page.

    That means T33 and FS 202 are open, too. For those who haven't done them, T33 is a fun, moderate trail (unless there's still snow in a couple of strategic spots), with a short hike to the crash site at the end of the trail.

    202 is shorter, but much more challenging. I know Todd wants another crack at it.

    I was there too and I don't think we did 202, atleast not with me. T33a is a GREAT trail, and the crash site is really something to see. I'll do it again!!

    Yep, I forgot you were there too (and Jackie). I don't remember doing any spurs or anything. Need to check that out!

    We should set up a alternative run for June 9th, or maybe on the 10th. Wheeler is getting too big for me but would not mind going on something a bit closer!

    Snaptastic! T33a has definitely been on my radar for this summer. FS202 sounds interesting. Wouldn't mind checking it out this weekend.

    So Rob, you want to make another whack at Rock Creek while there's still a tad bit of snow left? I'll bring the tire chains for it.

    ...and then perhaps jump down to Bunce (I've never been south of the meadows gate) - and I'd like to get to the T-33 site.

    No, we didn't. On one T33 trip (might have been that one), CR, Todd, Charles and I (in the 40) split from the group and got about halfway up 202 before it got too wet. The 40 had some clearance issues on some of the larger rocks. Later in the season, CR and I went and did the whole trail. That time I took the FJC -- better clearance with larger tires. I might have even used the rear locker once or twice.

    I'd be up for that, but not this weekend. I'll be camping and fishing somewhere up the Poudre this weekend. The following Saturday might work, unless I decide to go on the Wheeler Lake run (might be too many rigs for me, though).

    I didn't think so. It was just you, Paul, Jackie and I on the run that I'm talking about. I want to check out 202. I'm not seeing anything about it on TrailDamage.

    I keep forgetting it's called Park Creek on TD. There's a map that shows Bunce, T-33 and Park Creek.

    Here's the report from when CR and I did 202: FS 202 (T33-A spur)

    That looks like a fun little spur.

    To finish T33a is on my list this year. We ran it to the big hole/rock and then turned around as the guy I was with was unsure. Made for a nice little camping that night also.

    I'd probably be into it, I can't make Wheeler that weekend but t33a is a lot closer. Johnny Park was a blast too, I want to do that again this year.
