Great Idea. Could fly out and borrow the parents Brand New Yukon...Yeah right.

Depending on what part of the world I'm in at that time I'd be up for it.

Depending on where peeps wanted to go, a base camp idea might be appealing, where we all come to one campsite and make daily runs from there. Anyway here is a some pics of what Im talking about... And no, none of the pics are from an airplane, they're all from the trail! (All are my pics)


The perfect campsite back in there somewhere...


See our road?


The reason I want to be there


Very near a secret gemstone mining spot.


Speechless. (Notice: 4wd access does exist to Heaven!)


Lower elevation access road headed to the sticks


Road on Continental Divide, 12500' - Central Colorado


13000 feet near Tincup, CO

That is why i want to put together a trip for summer 2010! Each picture is from a different area, all of which are great places to go. If you are interested in a BF 2010 rally in Colorado, please register with Blazerforum.com or sign in and let me know here!! Currently taking suggestions for everything so we can see what kind of interest there is! There WILL NOT be any dues or registration fees, etc. Just a show up and put up kind of affair! If you have a Blazer we would love to see you there! If you don't have a Blazer you are bringing the beer! LOL

Here is a video (not mine) of one area from a passenger POV. The road is leaving Animas Forks, heading up over the continental divide toward Lake City. Excuse the flat tire at the end of the video, this old couple is funny too. There are hundreds of 'unknown' roads leading from this 'main' road over a HUGE area. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKK85...e=channel_page

This guy actually has a whole series of videos of the same area (Alpine Loop). If you are interested check this one out, it is very near where i am going this summer and a very good video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIPxLQUMuG4

*BEST VIDEO* And another from a Jeep girl showing some cool things along a few trails in Yankee Boy Basin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftG2Q...eature=related

A good video showing the rougher, rockier parts and drivebys of even bigger and better stuff for more serious drivers on a road between Ouray and Telluride http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvpfu...e=channel_page


If you have 4wd, gas money and 4 or 5 days that's all you really need.

There is plenty of interest. Sadly, there are not a lot of highly mobile BF Blazer owners out here in or around CO.

But hell, it's a year out so there is still hope right?
