    US East Running the Trans America Trail (TAT) from WV to the OR coast

    I've continued to follow the TAT 2.0 trackers when available. I was really apprehensive on the mornings I awakened to find they had spent the night on the south side of Pueblo. That's like the highest crime area of Colorado. Judging by @Zombie 's video it seems my fears were founded. If I had...

    US East Running the Trans America Trail (TAT) from WV to the OR coast

    Tim, do you still have to be back in Fountain, CO on the 14th? Maybe the 3 of us could at least hook up for the run over Tincup Pass.

    US East Running the Trans America Trail (TAT) from WV to the OR coast

    I've just been told by a reliable source that the water crossing at the lake shouldn't be a problem.

    US East Running the Trans America Trail (TAT) from WV to the OR coast

    IMAGINE MY SURPRISE to check the GPS trackers this morning and find one of you in my town. Last movement was almost 2 AM so I'm guessing it was a rough night with all the rain. Let me know if I can be of any help. With all the rain, I'm wondering if the lake crossing along Tincup Pass...

    It's raining way more than normal. BTW, you'll be passing really close to this in case you want to check it out: https://www.bishopcastle.org/

    US East Running the Trans America Trail (TAT) from WV to the OR coast

    ATTENTION TAT 2.0: I believe you are headed into the area that is under a flash flood watch. Pay very close attention to the weather, be mindful of where you camp, you'll be in the vicinity of the Spring Burn Scar which will contribute to a higher than normal probability of flooding. I'll try...

    US Rocky Mountain Autumn in Moab

    That sounds like a great plan. If you're not opposed to camping on the trail, look into that for chicken corners. That's what I want to do the next time I'm out there. If you're into base camping, you can usually find something along Dalton Wells Road or Willow Springs road. The latter is...

    US East Running the Trans America Trail (TAT) from WV to the OR coast

    Stock shouldn't be any problem. You might want to spot him during the one rocky section of Tincup Pass. You do have to drive through the edge of the lake. I haven't heard any advisories about the water being deep. You'll be passing close to a couple of trail heads of fun trails when you're...

    US Rocky Mountain Autumn in Moab

    It doesn't look like OP has any activity since March. What do you guys think about creating your own? I'll be happy to help.

    (Need help) First big overland trip to KS, CO, & UT.

    I puzzled over this a good bit the other day. Based on the time window and interstate route nothing jumped out at me. Alex, you're probably aware that UT & CO have a lot of other dinosaur attractions such as the Dinosaur National Monument, for example. Also, watch for the signs around Moab...

    Thanks for the updates. I'm so glad everyone is okay. I've been planning to run with you guys for CO, but am left wondering how that might work considering the latest developments. TAT 2.0, what are your plans?

    I was wondering why the 2nd group bypassed OK on the interstate yesterday. Now I know!

    US Rocky Mountain Engineer pass

    The bulk of the camping on Engineer is on the east end towards Lake City. From there I would try to get through Engineer, California, Hurricane and Corkscrew. Start watching for spots as you near the end of Corkscrew. There's one really good one before the end. Once you reach the end near...

    US Rocky Mountain Engineer pass

    This chooses Imogene for the last leg: (created with Gaia so it may not be perfect) https://www.gaiagps.com/map/?loc=10.0/-107.7482/37.9325&pubLink=FjsRyOjgmsZZOC9qmhhxoWTl&trackId=b52a5a29-8f95-4d5f-8ee5-a22d950c6808

    US Rocky Mountain Engineer pass

    I encourage you to combine this with some of the other amazing trails in the area. For example, leave Lake City on Engineer, see Animas Forks Ghost Town, continue over California + Hurricane + Corkscrew. Then choose between Ophir, Black Bear or Imogene to find yourselves at Telluride......
