My first love as a place to 4 wheel is Utah. We have dear friends there and the trails are well groomed allowing seniors like us to get to some pretty spectacular places with out great personal risk.
Colorado in general, and Ouray, in particular also quicken my pulse a bit. Colorado has a rugged beauty and an unforgiving terrain by which to view it.
The trails are defined as easy, moderate, difficult or the ever challenging, "technical".
Ethan and I spent a lot more time on 3 of our vehicle's 4 wheels than we liked but that is normal here.
I am not afraid to go anywhere, but after 5-6 hours of this pounding, at my age,I'm ready for a cold one and a nap.
The folks out here use their state's land in many ways: camping , hiking, biking, 4 wheeling and jst being outside. They have all the toys too.
We have attached some pictures of the trail rides we took over Tin Cup Pass and into the town of Tin Cup as well as a trip to Yankee Boy Basin traihead and then on up to Imogene Pass.
Like many things in life, pictures and words fall far short of describing the stunning beauty of it all.
