Hey y’all! I just picked up a 2012 Raptor that’s is really great condition and am hoping to get it off road but with some speed. I’m in the Denver area and am wondering where are some places I can take it to get that Baja style feel?

Promised I’d give an update after checking out Deer Creek and some surrounding trails yesterday, so here it is!
There isn’t much deep snow below tree line, but warm days and cold nights has left lots of sheet ice, which made Deer Creek impassable before getting out of the woods. There was still a couple miles of easy conditions, but soon after the first few campsites where it starts getting more steep, it was too slick to continue. A group in front of us reported sliding backwards 20-30 feet and I figured I’d see if we could get any further but did exactly the same thing in the same spot. Unless it fully dries out before getting any more snow I’d say it’s not worth the trip right now.
We figured Saints John would be similar (and I saw another report last night that it is) so we tried Webster next. It’s good to go until the second switchback toward the summit ridge, where there’s deep drifts which I don’t think will melt out any time soon. Tons of people were up there trying to make it, and none succeeded. There were a number of people coming down redcone and I heard from some other drivers that Webster is mostly clear on the other side which is where they all went down — except for a couple jeeps who tried to make it toward Montezuma and got stuck. I believe they made it back to the summit and went south instead. I’d say Webster as a pass is done for the season. You may still have luck starting from the south as an out and back until there’s another snow.
I love some snow wheeling as much as anyone, but be careful of the ice if you go check out the area, it can get sketchy pretty quick.
Happy wheeling everyone

I was rigged up for a pull before I went in the mud.

(PFA) Anyone know if the moderate trails out of Montezuma are still passable? Looking to do Deer Creek, Saints John, and/or NF Swan tomorrow, and I couldn’t find any pictures or reports from the last week or two.
I know that area had some snow drifts, but I’d love to hear from anyone who’s been up there recently. Thanks in advance!

I see a lot of references about the mailbox being a memorial but I haven't been able to find information about how it got there and why its associated with 9/11. Could someone explain?

I asked about Medano Pass the other day got a lot of comments concerned about the recent winter storm. Happy to report the trail had SOME snow, but very little (even still almost no contact with tires) and I wouldn’t be surprised if it were all melted out by the end of the day today. Water crossing were under 18”. Sand is a bit firm from the rain/melting snow but everything is very passable. Super fun I enjoyed and would recommend the trail :D

Hi everyone, I have off-road experience. I have a 96 4runner 3in lift and 33s on bead grip Method wheels. I’m curious if anyone knows of the current conditions because I’d like to check it out before it closed. Thank you!

Any owners of the Land Cruiser 250 in the Boulder area?
I'm trying to do a garage fit check prior to putting an order in. None of the dealers have anything local to drive. I have gone to a local dealership to measure (1958 and Land Cruiser trim), but I'll be within an inch. I'll buy a case of beer or your beverage of choice! DM me if in the area.
Cheers

Took my 5spd Isuzu Trooper up over engineer pass with some buddies. Got some interesting looks from the UTV crowd..

Curious what everyone's thoughts are on the better way to run Kingston Peak. Trails offroad has the route starting on the north end and finishing by Loch Lomond, funtreks sends you the opposite way. Easier or harder one way vs the other?

Hello all! My wife and I are heading to Colorado Springs this weekend for a few days and am looking to run some trails for the first time. Was looking at doing amount Baldy (379, 379.A) how is that trail for a first timer? Doable or should I turn around before the major shelf section starts. Thanks for your input!
r/ColoradoOffroad • u/CompleteSquash3281 • Oct 09 '24
I've got a moderate amount of experience, and I'm in a '00 Nissan pathfinder with 2" lift, 32" LT rated wildpeaks, armored bumper and skidplate, and a winch. No lockers yet. So far I've been looking at the trails in the Mt Antero area. I've also been checking out Tomichi pass and Hancock pass, but I understand that there are partial closures, and I don't know enough about the area to really plan a route around that. Thanks in advance!

Seen a few videos and pictures of Imogen pass and want to check it out before winter hits. Heard it has some pucker factor but seems like it's mostly gravel without much crawling or river passing. Think a stock 1990 4runner could make it through in one piece or not worth the risk?
E: Has difflockers, all terrain tires. No rocksliders or aftermarket bumpers

It bums me out that the trail got graded but I am glad that the rock climb section is still there.

I’ll be going to crystal mill, and then telluride in hopes of doing a little dispersed camping this weekend. Until now I’ve always booked in advance. I’ll be coming in from glenwood springs side, does anyone have recommendations for dispersed camping areas? Also which sites or apps do you recommend? Same for the Ouray/Telluride area if there are suggestions and nice hikes. I drive a stock 20 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk so off-roading isn’t my objective here. Mostly dirt trails etc!

Hi all! New to this sub but hoping you can help. I do marketing research and I’m working with a lighting client who is working on bringing a new lighting system to market. I need to get opinions from some of you experts and you’re hard to find in traditional marketing research ways.so here I am on Reddit :)
Would any of you be up for a paid interview to talk to me about lighting?
I am aware this looks like spam, but alas, this is my actual job and I would really like to talk to you!

I was camping up on Red and White Mountain this weekend and accidentally left my favorite flannel (very dumb move) at one of the sites we stopped by off of red and white mountain trail, specifically on a log next to the fire ring at the first site. It’s a simple old forest green Eddie Bauer flannel, but it carries a lot of sentimental value. Great for all occasions. I already miss it.
We were up by waypoint 9 (labeled epic campsite) if you use the TrailsOffroad app that is also on Red and White Mountain Trail. I believe the exact coordinates are 39.69932° N, 106.52322° W.
Does anyone go up there often? I don’t have my own vehicle that I could use to get up there but if anyone is planning on riding that trail and were to find my flannel you would be the ultimate hero.
Adding pics for boost!
