Anyone run Saxon Mountain trail outside Georgetown recently in their Gladiator? Wondering how it did in the 3 rock slide areas, and if any issues with the longer wheelbase? Looking to go in the upcoming weeks, but with multiple vehicles and definitely experienced spotters for those areas. Most likely it'll be a week day trail run. Let me know, want to get something planned.

@Chargingstar and I had a blast on Friday. No one was out and we got to run Rainbow Falls, (the easier parts of) Mini Moab and them explored running Rampart to Schubarth. One of my goals is to map a lot of the Front Range and we had a blast trying some new trails. Mini Moab is no joke, I can't get my tire on the big stuff. The first video...well it always looks smaller on camera. ;) I am fast loving my 4.88 swap.








OP is legit too! I'd end up pulling off the trail into a shady spot for a nap after downing the Quintalon and the Huevos Rancheros

Weird. I will see what I can do. I am very limited with my tech skills.

Says the guy with a sweet Rubicon and 2in lift.
I slipped a tire on Mini Moab, you sir, did not. :like:


Great day to explore some new trails! DocMike and Rat Patrol made everything look easy!

One of my favorite places to go. Glad you made the trip. Did you do the loop?

Crystal Mill did not disappoint. And neither did the BBQ! Marble is AMAZING!

Was thinking about it , but the threat of rain made it an in and out on the shorter leg of the loop. And it did start raining by the time we got back to the fork.

Wise move. We cancelled due to a massive down pour here. I'm hoping it's dry in Ouray this week.

@Chargingstar and I expect you and @Waggs in on the next one. :rock:
I know :)

I should be good to go more weekends this fall once school starts. We’ve been driving or camping over 50 days this summer so I’ve been a bit tough to pin down haha.
