    Under normal years the 1st 2 trails would likely still be snowed in. Webster is usually almost August. Redcone can be done with an exit through Montezuma in late mid June but the risk of body damage is high for a stock rig. Bilmore Lake to the lake is usually almost July but has some exploring that can be done before then.

    This year might be early depending on late season accumulation.

    What about jones pass? I saw that one was relatively easy, but someone also said it was boring.

    Elevation and exposure determine if there will be snow on trail. I have never done Jones, don't typically do easy/stock trails so I'm not the best one to ask. Bushducks.com is a good resource to check if a trail is currently snowed in. TrailsOffroad.com is a good site to check if the trails your looking at suit your abilities. Sorry i couldn't help with that trail.

    Views are really pretty. But it's pretty much just a dirt road.

    Here's a pic I took last time I was up there.

    I would like to add that even easy trails can have amazing views, not all do but anytime you get above tree line it is a treat. But above tree line also means piles of snow.

    Really I would check back when your under a month out and see what conditions are.

    So I watched a Jeep biff it over the curb when he lost it in the snow tonight, so be careful out there!

    There's not a bunch of it, but it's pretty much freezing as it hits the ground.

    Anyone have a good source for water jet or CNC plasma cutting and press braking? I would prefer aluminum, but steel would work for me too.

    I'm looking to solicit a few quotes for a couple of mounts I need made and want to see if it's a reasonable endeavor.

    @TMFF , do I recall you saying at one point you have access?
