Screwed up priorities. Now my Jeep is speedy!

And will be garaged soon for the winter!

Someone rolled a Taco on Red Cone today. Apperently already cleared. Tracks look like he tried to turn mid hill?

Is that the first big climb after getting out of the woods?

Yep

Interesting spot to roll...

 

[inkedrose]

Weird spot to roll for sure. Saw it posted in a FB group. Looks like his tracks cross that ridge in the middle, only thing I can think is he tried to flip a u turn mid hill and at speed?

You're supposed to build in the winter and wheel in the summer....what happened?

I'm hosejocky61, it's wheeling season. Says the guy who has been broke down since Memorial Day.

We did run Grizzly Lake yesterday. It was nice to get some Jeep therapy.

Is it yellow?

think it was Silver. haven’t been to Elizabeth in quite a bit. we roll thru there on the way to C springs.

The thing that sucks is that I don't have any weekends open until Jeeptober. I only have a few days open if I wanted to wheel during the week. Very busy this year for me. I was hoping to get up and do Iron Chest and Grizzly Lake this year.

There's a yellow one in my neighborhood that is set up nicely from what I can see.

Yeah this year was tough. I've only been out once and even then I barely got to enjoy it. The underside of my hood has seen more light this year than anything else.

Come hell or high water though, I'll be at jeeptober!

 

[NDSpeed]

when is that?

 

[tworley]

Day 2 of jeeptober? I did grizzly years ago and really enjoyed the trail, been wanting to run grizzly again ever since.

 

[tworley]

when is that?

Jeeptober? Usually that first weekend in October in the Buena Vista area.

Or even day 1. Change it up a bit. I'm not sure yet if I can go both days.

i had one run this year up parts of rampart. hardly anything to write home about. but at least i got a camping trip in

 

[inkedrose]

I try to get out at least once a week, if not more. I hate the city so much anymore, mountains are what keep me here

 

[NDSpeed]

160 miles from bennett to BV. that’s a long haul

wish i bought closer to the mountains.

I'm in Parker and it's a long drive for me too. But we do what we have to do to get the wheeling in!

What is jeeptober is that an organized thing or just a forum tradition
