Invitation to ColoradoFest 2011 - Last week in July

[old_man]

The Colorado Chapter is happy to invite you to attend ColoradoFest 2011, held in Ouray, Colorado. It is one of the most beautiful areas in the country. Also known as the Switzerland of America, the bulk of the trails can be run by a stock XJ, but make up with the increadible scenery.

For you international folks, you can rent Jeeps in Ouray.

There are lots of hardcore trails within driving distance as well.

We will be headquartering out of the KOA Campground in Ouray.

This is an event the whole family will enjoy. Don't forget your camera and extra memory cards.

You can see more about what will be happening in the events forum. There is a sampling of the trails that are available for you to view. So start now planning your family vacation.

We all started wheeling as a rank beginner. Each year we get absolute first time wheelers at our events. That is great.

Colorado's trails tend to be a bit different from most places and the ledge roads and switchbacks can be a bit intimidating the first few times.

I am posting up to see if anyone would like a Wheeling 101 course while at ColoradoFest. I have always enjoyed taking inexperienced wheelers over some awesome trails with safety. By the end of the week we end up with some very confident and competent wheelers that can't wait to hit the trails.

There is a thread in the ColoradoFest 2011 forum where you can sign up.
