I like the look of the Gladiators only when they have 37" or bigger tires..... beastly! If it's a pickup your after, you can't go wrong with a Ram 2500 Powerwagon ;)

Just the trail we took is 43 miles one way. Add on the Spurs we took we easily did 100 miles of dirt road - Jim and I did another 10+ miles south to Red Feather Lake before we hit pavement and aired...

The road was open all the way to the end of the 43 mile track I have. There were some very icy sections and some deep snow but we cruised pretty fast most of the way. Did a few spur trails too, one...

Umm, yea the plan is to go to Cherokee Park road and head west to see how far we can get.

I’ve done it a few times and when I did in the winter there is a section where ice collects and although I made it without winching I had to winch someone up it. This trail is not a great winter...

Good call backing down, I’ve run it in winter and it can be sketchy! Go with at least one other when wheeling whenever possible just in case!!!

It’s good news for wheeling so maybe we will be able to get a ways in before the snow is too deep

An inch or two at most up here

Welcome! I’m also up outside of Allenspark, I’m near Wild basin. This group is awesome, I joined 4 years ago and have done countless trips with folks on here! We have one run posted for Saturday...

Yea I read this was a good winter trail until too much snow falls..... which hasn’t really happened yet! I think I’ll actually bring the Jeep, had to jump start it today and greased all the joints...

Nice! But you don’t wanna visit those campsites in summer. Unless your looking for meth or wanna party with a bunch of transients. It’s great in the winter though ;)

Goes down a gulch and dead ends - it’s the “hard” section of Gordon gulch with two large mud holes. It’s fun but not easy to get back up without help in the winter

Welcome, this is a great group and most of us wheel often so come out and have some fun!

Next Saturday should work for me too

Maybe next week or next weekend, you interested? I do have chains for the big truck, haven't tried them on yet but they should fit dandy

I thought I read Cherokee Park road is open year round other than snow closing it..... the spurs off of it are closed from what I could tell also. The road seems to go way back and my thought was...

Is this road open? I’ve never wheeled up there north of Red Feather lakes but it looks like it could be fun. Anyone wanna plan something up here?

I feel sorry for my awesome TJ Rubicon, it's been neglected for the last year due to the love affair I have with my Powerwagon!

My Corvette got driven twice in 2020, I feel bad for it also...... ...

I believe we will be in 2wd most of the time to be honest, but we will definitely have sections of 4hi and 4Lo for sure! I’ll bring 10 gallons of extra gas and my truck has a 31 or 34 gallon tank so...

I'm not sure, I'm thinking we will likely all get there in the late afternoon (6-7 hour drive for me). We could plan to meet in Hanksville around 5pm-ish and then fuel up and head to Poison Springs...

Nice! Yea I noticed at the base of Cliffhanger 2.0 they blocked off what used to be a "parking area" but the road to the top is open. I was seriously considering driving out there to meet you guys...

Jim,

I think we'll find some attractions along the drives to the campsites. Poison Springs wash has a water crossing at 16 miles and could have some washed out road areas we'll need to navigate. ...

Sharp!
