What weekend this month works the best for you? @Ranger305 Won’t be able to make it up here now so we can alter the weekend for anytime this month.
@Frenchy would you be interested in meeting up for a group ride?

Okay, so we can try for second or third weekend of August.

If you are able to go this month please reply with which weekend you prefer and your desired area of the state so I can work our what’s closest for the majority of people going.

No preference on the weekend. I'm south of Denver so it's gonna be a drive for me regardless. Also completely stock except for tune. If that excludes me from what you all want to do I can join a future meetup after I get my lift/tires. LMK

Nah, we can find a trail to fit everyone’s setup. Lucky for you the Ranger is pretty capable in stock trim. ?

Hello everyone . Just re-discovered this thread.

I'm in south Colorado Springs and have been doing my first upgrades this year since purchasing in June 2019.

  • Icon Stage 2 with UCA
  • BFG 285/70r17 on Icon Wheels as well.
  • Shrockworks Sliders in transit to be installed in a week or two.
I've been out on the trails with it a few times this year, and some last summer.

Jonny Park Road (stock)
Mount Baldy
Eagle Rock
Chinns Lake

This weekend I'm heading camping with a group out by Buena Vista

Tin Cup
Mt Antero & Princeton

And I have plans to do the San Juans and possibly light Moab trails this fall.
I've just learned from reading here that my truck can do Red Cone!

I might be down for the meetup depending on my schedule.
But it'd be great to share trail experiences with you guys. Makes me feel more confident knowing what the truck is capable of.

Here are a few pics of my rig.

Hey there and welcome back! Hah

Glad to see someone else from the same town for a change.

Let me know how your weekends look this month for a meetup and if not this month hopefully we can meet up for a color change trail ride in October.

I can only do 8/1, and preferably a spot within an hour or two of the Springs.

The only weekend im open is this upcoming one unfortunately. I'm in Divide so near the Springs. @ToddlerCO you made it all the way up eagle rock? That trail is gnarly. I ran it on a UTV years ago and there was a lot of winching involved.

I'm now in Salida and moving at the moment but i wouldnt mind a group ride one of these weekends. Just be aware I don't have any extra equipment at the moment either.

Any weekend in August will work for me as well and so far I have been to the Four Mile area at BV a little bit on Tincup a few months back and I have been up to billings lake. I have also gotten past the major portion of Hagerman Pass by Turquoise Lake.
Perhaps as an idea plan a day to meet up in or near Leadville and do the Hagerman Pass all the way to Basalt and return on Independence pass. Should make forna cool day trip at least

@Sandman

I think I did only a portion of Eagle Rock. (cheater!). The section that connects Mt Baldy to FS 376 back by the city reservoirs. It was steep and loose in spots but not too bad.

My August is partially open so far. I've got weekend plans except for 15-16 and 22-23.

Ahh okay. I've taken my Ranger down that section as well. The other side is a lot more extreme. If you cross the road by the reservoir onto bull park that's pretty good too but a lot more rocky.
