Ill be doing the colorado leg over 4th of july

 

Lol yea...I don't have at issue that's for sure haha

Hey! If we are counting rain showers en frank has seen lots of love. We have had like 5 short showers over the last 3 days.

And gotcha. I see what you meant there. Man I can't wait to drive them!

Sweet man! Have fun tell us how it goes.

 

Which leg are those vids from? They look like your trip to Christina Lake or Shoshone.

 

Leg 2 Shoshone lake trail.

 

Awesome!

 

Heck ya man! Plus it's a bit rougher I think then the vid shows due to run off and such. Should be interesting to see how much it has changed this year

 

I'm checking with friends and family in Colorado, how soon do you have to know by? + I'm just a new member and still have to do some upgrades on the equipment side. This is what I dreamed of doing when brought my Tacoma 3 years ago. I have saved up for toytec ultimate lift, diff drop, SPC upper control arms, add a leaf, and 285 75 16R BFG's A/Ts. I'm still an offroad novice. I'm think a Hi lift jack and a CB after reading this. Sliders would be nice to have I just don't think I would have the money to spend on them before August. Any thoughts?

 

Hey man!

Which trails you looking at doing on this trip? Like which legs??

These are going to be challenging trails for a newby. But not that bad. Plus we will help you as best we can to pass on good knowledge.

 

All of Leg 3 sounds good to me.. The one the has me a little scared is black bear. I have done some wheelin in my dads FJ 62. Those narrow rocky roads have me a little feaked out. I really wanted to check off some grades 4 and higher

 

Idk what lander is rated or Morrison. Gonna be fun comparing Morrison to black bear.

If you get the 33s tho and the lift you should be okay I think..sliders would be very very nice for lander..but if you take a good line I think you'll be fine.

 

I was planning a doing a trip in Sept. With my Sister and some friends. I just sent them some emails about I'm hopping they reply soon.

 

Sweet man!

Just let me know in here and we will help ya out. Make sure you watch all the vids and info to make sure you'll be comfortable on the trails.

you coming or what??

 

Not sure yet...changed the dates and itinerary of my trip, so I don't have to be back in Tucson till the 15th of August. Spending a few days in Grand Teton with a friend who is flying in from Philly from July 19 - 25. Then I'm jamming up to Glacier National Park for a few days, then back to the Jackson area for a few days of packrafting & fishing, and finally down to backpack the Wind River range for a few days. Hopefully I'll be done with what I want to do by the 4th or 5th and can join you guys at least for leg 2.

 

Awesome man. Hope you can swing it. Your trip is gonna be epic in its own right.

 

Okay for those staying in Powell with me after Leg 1 to continue on to Leg 2: There is free camping at our main city park, Homesteader Park. So if there isn't room at my place you will have a place to bed up for the night for sure!

So far i have staying at my place:

-Mike(in the back with RTT)
-Ben/Ali?(Back yard with tent)
-Mark(ground tent)
-Brady/Wife?(Ground tent)

So Eric and Joey i don't have a confirmed. Eric i think since your just Hammocking it you can find a place easy in my back yard.

Joey, are you gonna have a RTT by this trip??

 

If by chance I make it on your trip and I'm there for leg 1 and continue with leg 2, I'll probably crash in your backyard if there is room. If no room for my truck/RTT, I will also have my hammock so hopefully there are enough tree's to hang from.

 

So if you make it you'll be doing leg 1 and 2?? Not just 2? lol make up your mind

And the Park isn't that far either..so a group could end up sleeping there

But i bet we can fit two RTTs in the back. And one out front if needed. Hell maybe 2 in the front drive..

 

Well like I said....I'm hoping to be done with what I want to do/see in the Wind River range by the 2nd or 3rd. If that's the case, I'll probably wind up doing leg 1 & leg 2. More than likely I would join Lisa on her sissy route for leg 1 though, I want some great scenery and plenty of photo ops plus I just don't want to do those switchbacks
