I have been in the Buena Vista Area. The Collegiate mountains are amazing. You can drive almost to the top of Mount Antero (14K ft). If you don't have a campground already. Chalk Creek Campground in Nathrop is really nice. Grizzly lake is a nice drive. The entry obstacle may be a bit tricky for the TH. Last time I was there was in my old CJ-5. There are a lot of mountain passes in the area that the TH should be able to do with no problems.


I am going to be in Yellowstone/Grand Tetons from August 11th to the 14th.
Then In the Bridger-Teton National forest from the 14th to the 17th.
Overnight in Vernal Utah on the 17th.
In the Black Canyon of the Gunnison from the 18th to the 21st.
Finally in the Great Sand Dunes National Monument for the 21st to the 23rd.
Then head back home.

That sounds like a great trip!
I lived in BV for 5 years and have done just about every trail on my dirt bike and 01 Cherokee, can't wait to get back and stomp around!
Taylor park is awesome to!

The San Juan Mountains in SW Colorado are fantastic. Been there a few times. Luckily it's not that far from Phoenix (for me).

Sand dunes has a great 4 by trail. Have to get thru the sand 1st though. I think they have an air station for when you com back out.

Made it to the Continental Divide, stretched the Trailhawk's legs on a road to South entrance to Mt Elbert. easy-moderate difficulty, wife commented how nice it drove! Used 4LO, no lock. Used gear selection =1 coming down, worked great
Plan to look for another step up in difficulty next week.

Great pictures Gator. Now you're making us feel bad. The Cherokee looks right at home in the wilds of Colorado.
