Monday trail ride

[Viperwolf1]

I took the bronco up to Bill Moore lake to exercise it some yesterday. I had to make sure everything's working good for the upcoming big game season. I tell you what, that place is absolutely empty on a Monday. Well, empty except for an occassional 4-legged native. It's probably the last time I'll make it up there this year. There was some snow blowing already above 11K ft and the marsh around the lake was starting to freeze over. I crawled right through the mogals without having to use the locker. Good thing too because I haven't wired the switches up yet. I did find a broke u-joint in the rear on the way out but that was an easy fix. With the leaves turning, it was a really nice ride.

I go prepared and I had these guys with me. The trail is just off I-70 and it has coverage all the way up.

I remember the days of no cell phones (or personal computers for that matter) getting out in the woods or deep in the dunes (when you could ride on the dunes around here!) by myself or only whoever was in the old Bronco with me and part of the thrill was knowing that if your rig wasn't up to snuff or you didn't know how to drive it, it was a long walk back!

Great pics! Thanks for the motivation to finish my brakes so I can hit the hill this weekend!!

That really makes me miss Colorado. I made quite a few trips to Bill Moore Lake. I lived there in Empire at the trail head for about 4 years. Had to move in 2003 due to layoff from casino in Black Hawk.

I have been trying ever since to make it back up that way but moving and one mean lady by the name of Katrina have delayed my trip. My goal is to make it for the end of July in 2009.

It is a beautiful area. Not too long of a walk from the lake down to the little town

Those pics are awesome. Fall is my favorite season and can't wait to get out to the mountains for my hunting trip.

Thanks for sharing.

wasn't talking about cell phones, was talking about trail buddy.
I've taken that long walk home (more than once ) I'm not that bright
didn't learn the first time.

great pics ;D
