I picked up Chinese food takeout. I definitely need to have some more fun :) (and I’m so envious of you Colorado peeps!).
Julie,

A Colorado Peep here. As a member of a Colorado Jeep Club we off-road frequently within all four corners of our wonderful state. Not only is it way cool to live here, it's also certainly way better still when you are able to enjoy the State and National Forest trails with these almost indescribable breathtaking views with other outdoor enthusiastic Jeepers. In addition yet with having the piece of mind at tackling any challenging obstacles with all the necessary expertise and help along the way.

Yesterday our Patrol ran the Swan River North Fork Trail East of Breckenridge up to the top of Wise Mountain. Then navigated the Saint's John Road (anything but) northward over Glacier Mountain ending in the quaint little unincorporated town of Montezuma near Keystone.

Most of this trail is above treeline higher than 12 thousand feet. Steep, rocky ascents, tight blind switchbacks along with many rolling off-camber stretches made for a very fun drive. The ultimate enjoyment unquestionably however are the views. Well worth the price of admission: Free if you neglect the cost of your Jeep.

Long panoramic vistas, deep rocky ravines, close to cliff routes and many (many) old abandoned mines and crumbling frontier cabins, structures and buildings. It was very sad and unfortunate to see that the old emergency shelter on top of Wise Mountain had eventually also succumed to both time and the elements. It's floor had eventually too caved in to the mine shaft below it.

Here are a few pics to help with your envy while enjoying your Chinese takeout. We do have restaurants all over our state too. Please come and try some of our takeout menu hopefully finding a high mountain path in doing so.

Squamish Valley Road - Washed out as the river was out of control, turn around!

Alright let's try another road... Nope! Someone's placed cement barriers across it, turn around!

Let's try another valley - Nice... But after a few hours with no openings, no views, it was time to call it a day and turn around :CWL: (Plus forgot to download Gaia map for this one...)

Hi Jay,

Thanks for the photos!

This is too funny...I sat down for lunch—leftover takeout—and opened the forum:

We have been fortunate enough to visit Colorado twice and I *loved* it! I've wanted to visit for many years and we went to a Jeep Jamboree in Ouray in our JK and visited Estes Park, RMNP, Crested Butte, Telluride, Aspen, and of course, Ouray.

I cannot wait to go back.

I don't have a lot of photos uploaded to Smugmug, but here are a few:

Looks like you are quite the photographer Julie. You should post pictures on here more often.

Later,

Mike,

The really cool photos, including the trailer pattern came from Julia. She's a much better photographer than I. I was just pointing the android phone out the window while wheeling.

Thank you, Johnny. I do enjoy photography. Now to go somewhere to take photos :).

Thanks! We had a few times when driving down the road we saw a “paved road ends” sign. We had some muddy days for sure.

I think I must have just missed you guys. I took the Swan River Middle Fork trail up to Wise Mountain and then took Deer Creek north to Montezuma yesterday. Agreed, views were amazing.

Could I join your club that you’re apart of? I’m a lone jeeper ever since my one friend moved out of CO and I’m fairly new to off roading. I’ve done a few trails off Tiger Road in Breck and the Crystal Mill loop. I would love to be able to group up with some more experienced people and learn some tricks and tips.

That is my kind of wheeling. I think the views are just as important as the trail.
