Colorado Trail Status, Closures, repairs, discussion.

Did he post a good pic of his plates?


I have never seen a trail in CO that goes straight through still standing but mud soaked grass the truth is that these people are selfish and don't care whether it gets shut down or not. They're just gonna go around the gate anyways, right?

 

didn't take long

*BLACK BEAR PASS CLOSED*
(Bridal Veil Rd is open)

Black Bear Pass is closed on both sides dues to a single vehicle accident on “the stairs”by Ingram Falls blocking all traffic except motorbikes. Officials will be turning around/re-routing traffic on the east side. There is one occupant not believed to be seriously injured.
*Bridal Veil Road is open.

 

Is that a Subaru?!?!

 

Any chance they are doing the "reverse" run of BBP this year?

Never got a clear understanding of why they (FS, Sheriff, whoever) changed the rules last year causing it to be canceled

 

i thought they were not going to do that anymore.. and why the last one was such a big deal

 

So the Wild Bunch 4x4 resolved whatever the required conditions are to hold it again?

 

Looks like a 5th gen 4Runner to me

 

Isn't that the spot the FJ flopped last year?

Looks like they crunched their RTT too

 

man I hope it's a legitimate offroad vehicle...kinda looks like a station wagon to me but hard to tell.

 

range rover?

 

That's a 5th Gen 4Runner.

 

ah totally is...

 

Damn Overlanders

 

Lol at all the gas cans...

 

I'm a wuss, I look at that section of Black Bear and it's a quick nope from me. Looks like serious pucker factor for sure.

 

It's not that bad.

 

That could have been much worse than it was.

 

Did he drive up the side of the rock wall???

 

Maybe? That'd be one way. What happens most often right there, if I remember correctly, is that there's a bit of a ledge and people drop the front over it and find themselves doing a wheelstand, then jam on the brakes hard causing it to continue over instead of letting off a bit and letting it roll out. Greater chance of that the shorter the wheelbase and more top-heavy you are.

 

Where's the video?
