    Anyone out there know of any trails that are long enough or can connect to other trails easily for a multi-day trip off-road within Colorado, Utah or New Mexico? I am looking to take a trip like that this summer but haven't had any luck finding any online. Most are guided trips (which I am not willing to pay for something I can do myself and with a friend) and don't do multi-day. Let me know please so I can get to planning ASAP! Thanks a bunch.

    More details of said trip? Look up the bookcliff cruisers group on ih8mud.com.
    There are few trails that fit exactly what you are looking for. And those would be the guys to ask.
