Westbound and Down: The LGAA planning thread

Yea I got Maine and Nova Scotia lined up in July 18’ but that could all change if this trip slides into view for 2018.

Side note. I’m at home depot and a dude just asked me..
-how big is this Bro?
Me: huh?
-is this a 4 or 6 inch lift?
Me: 2.5” ... I think ish
-nice Bro there mines ova there I want some lift. Have a merry Christmas Bro ya trucks tight. Peace



So much win on that exchange.

 

Is that trip open for additional tripees?

 

For sure. I think it’s just the wife kid and I on the first leg of trip which would be NS. And second leg we meet up with a few friends and camp out in mount desert island camp grounds and do some hiking at Acadia for a few days

 

That sounds awesome! I would be down for that this summer

 

So.Much.Bro

Im interested in the trip for this year

 

You have no idea how much. Literally made my whole day but only because I’m a member on this site.

Let the Bro force be with you.

 

Yep the airport, first time out on the west coast,. The terrain is so foreign compared to the east coast

Here is the link for the trail status page I mentioned before. Just scroll down, select the pass and it will give the available updates on trail conditions. Something to keep in mind to decide the season to go.

 

Anyone into bikes also interested in some 2 wheel action while out west? I know there could be an entire trip dedicated to cycling but a couple of trails would be fun given the area.

 

Motorcycles?

 

Depends how fast you pedal

 

I *highly* recommend watching some of these videos for inspiration

I’ve been cracking out on these YouTube vids

 

Been dreaming of a trip to Colorado for a while now. Came through the Rockies back in 03 and wanted to go back since. Hopefully in the future that will happen. Kid number 2 on the way in January will probably put a damper on those plans for a bit.

Stop it

 

sorry im bored

 

I’m new to the area so I don’t know it super well but in a few months I’ll know a lot more so yeah, possibly.

You’re right that there are fewer intersecting trails and it’s fairly easy to navigate. There are also good maps of most areas.

 

Do you know how challenging most trails are? I imagine they are very easy going. I know there are ORV parks but Id love trails that go places and have actual obstacles that need to be overcome. I have no idea what Colorado is like.

 

Colorado is:


East Coast is (boring):

 

Places I don't want to go (already been there):
Denver
Boulder
