UPDATE: I just purchased the permit at Wal-Mart. Unfortunately these are the actual permits only and not the decal. Both are equal in regards to making one legal on such a trail should you find yourself there, but doesn't provide the visible 'decalage' should you be into that. The decals are...

I look forward to seeing you all in Colorado! Please understand that our 4WD routes see a lot of traffic from folks who may not understand what a challenge it is to keep these routes open. I led an event this past weekend, the 3rd Annual Buena Vista June Jam, where we had a guest speaker...

When you turn off the highway there is one RV trailer park come on past it and all of the campsites past that is where we are spread out over right now. There's one green tint to the left in the middle you should see an Overland bound flag on the...

Let us know when and where you want to go and we might try to setup up a meet or trail run.

What'd they do when you told them we had 25 trucks coming?

OK everyone. Listed camping area is confirmed. I'd love to know when you arrive. I'm the oddball in the Red Avalanche. If for some reason I'm not there, look for Overland Bound flag and see if there is any info nearby.
