Hey guys, just wanted to post up and share my first trip out here in CO.
We went to Chinaman Gulch which is about 3 hours west of Denver.

That is just a few that Lisa took. The album is here if you want to check it out.

Lisa and Rylee went on this trip, and I think it could have been a bad thing... Rylee has been asking me to drive over the bumps again. Lisa on the other hand, has been scouring Craigslist for a CJ-7... Oh boy...

The club I went with was On The Rocks.
They plan a yearly Moab trip as well. And Lisa wants to go. lol.
I've also checked out Mile-Hi Jeep Club, but haven't been to one of their meetings yet.
Traildamage is a great resource for the trails out here. And they're all public land!

Depending if I get the day off, I may be going back next month.

Hit up Coney Flats a few weeks ago with a group of 8 Grand Cherokees. 4 ZJ's, 2 WJ's, and 2 WK's. Pretty good time, and not as challenging as Chinaman.
Starting to average 1 run a month!
Gotta get more pix up soon.

The creek crossing. Right after this photo, we pulled a JK out of here after the dumb ass hit it too fast. Took a half hour to get the water out of his motor and get him running.

Just a shot of the GC's in front of me.

This is true!
I think it's cause there is so much variety, and it's all public land.
And it helps that I'm taking the family as well. My daughter loves the bumps, and the wife loves the scenery.

We're planning a Moab trip for the spring. But it all hinges on if we pull the trigger and buy a house.
