Looking to test my XJ out, heard that there is some decent trails out by Cedar Mtn Rd I believe, Maybe early-mid Feb? Im also open to other ideas.

Might be interested in getting out depending on the weather as I have to work if it's snowing. They have said certain trails are closed. But I wouldn't mind seeing for myself. Might try Mnt. Herman it is usually a in place to run in the winter. I think the decker's area would have more snow.

I would be looking to do this I know Kurtis would go as well.
I know the clutches well so we could make a long day of it and run 2.
I definitely want to go, I can't do Saturday. If my rig is good to go I'm down for Sunday
Is Mt Herman open year round? I may have to go scope some of these places out and make sure they are open. If all seems good maybe we could go Sunday Feb 19th?
Lets do this!
That would work for me.
Im in
I'm in! I'm stock but want to explore.
Looks like a run! Remember to add it to the calendar to see who else might want to join you.

Sorry to hear Kurtis, hope all turns out well. Working on some ideas now, Bear with me fellas, im new to this forum thing. Brandon sais he knows the area pretty well, so i'm attempting to ask him for some help on details. I'll have it posted ASAP. Thanks everyone, really excited to get out there and have some fun!

Kurtis, best wishes for Katy!
Victor, I know the area like the back of my hand. If you need any directions, or help with meeting places let me know. I usually trek through Santa Fe to Sadalia up 67 down to the river and go up through Deckers to Westcreek. There is a fire station in Westcreek that people usually meet up at. OR, you can go I-25 to COS up to Divide and hit the west end of Cedar Mtn. road.
Depending on which trails and exact date I'm up in the air. Rite now the big 4runner is down getting a 60 front in it but with luck will have it wrapped up this weekend. The little 4runner I don't want to run it on Hackett or the steep rocks in the snow.
Also, went up last weekend and I know there has been a lot of talk of those trails being shut down in the winter by the FS but I checked out all gulches entrances and none had any signs saying anything about closure and all the gates are open.
Alternitive to the gulches if too much snow would be possibly run trail creek, cut up through to cedar Mtn, and create a loop of sorts. Thats what I did last weekend. The area is a very huge interconnected trail system. I think I have tracked (mapped) 95% of.

Has an official weekend been chosen yet - looks like a suggestion for 2/19? Post it up as a run when a date is finalized...I can't do 2/19 weekend, but other weekends are possible for me. But since I am unsure the status of the jeep I will just watch for now and see what develops. I think Metberry would be fun...
