Front Range 4x4 - The Front Range of Colorado 4x4 Club for Friendly People That Enjoy Wheeling the Trails
Not just 4Runners if that's your only interest.
Around the 9th or 10th of July I was thinking we could get a group of Toyotas up to Yankee Hill which is friendly for stock trucks but has some terrain for a challenge. I wouldn't mind making a day of it and packing a lunch and hang out and get to know some other T4Rers. Bring the wife or girlfriend would be good too since my wife wants to go on a run.

Or maybe Red Cone

Slaughterhouse is pretty easy but it's only about 40minutes up 285.

I'd like to stick with something close to Denver for this run.
I will be in CO the last week of July, in both the Telluride area and Salida/Buena Vista area. If anyone would like to meet up and do some drives that would be fun. My 4r is stock so nothing crazy, class
3-4 at the most probably.
I'm jealous I AM SAM, I haven't done T-33 yet and while I don't know everyone going Saturday I call many of them my friends. You'll have a good time, regretably I can't make it since I'll be traveling out-of-state. I'll enjoy it vicariously through the run reports.
Ha ha, I am excited to run it. I have wanted to do that trail for quite a while. I am friends with John and Keith, that's my FR4X4 way in. Maybe some other time, travel safe!
I'm in! but wondering if Yankee Hill for example is still snowed in?
Either way I will be ready for mid July.
Not doing Red Cone- frankly that last steep descent scares the bejeezus out of me...and I would imagine Webster Pass still has that washout area just below the top in order to return to US285. (Red Cone is one way only)
I want to keep it simple for some of the possible amateurs/first timers that might join us as I'm looking forward to a relaxing day to have lunch and hang out with some new folks as well as a couple I may know so hopefully the snow is mostly melted by July as I don't feel like digging any trucks out.
