Dave lets get that d60 a work out :toothless Lets see how many of us can go. Cool!

I'm gonna run kingston peak that weekend also. Just need to know what day we run wheeler lake so I can tell a friend what day we're gonna run kingston peak. Dangling_Dave 07-14-2004, 05:09 PM Lets shoot for Saturday the 24th. Sunday sucks with the traffice coming back to Denver. dc ZOSO 07-14-2004, 05:14 PM What time and where to meet? I'm off 120th and lowell. I've never been there but have been to fairplay and alma(the area I hunt is 500 by jefferson and jeff lake and georgia pass) Dangling_Dave 07-14-2004, 05:17 PM Gosh so many things to think about :) Want to meet here in town and cruise up or at the trailhead at say 10:00 am? I am fine with any ideas... BTW I live at 60th and Wadsworth, just north of I-70 about a mile. dc BoulderBronco 07-14-2004, 11:32 PM Man, I would love to join you guys but I broke my front axle as usual last weekend. Some pretty sweet wheeling right here in Boulder. I had seen it before but never done it. Anyway I just bought a house and don't have a whole lot of time or $$ to fix it. I think I may have a spare laying around somewhere but have not come up with it yet. If I can get her fixed by then I would be in, but don't count on it. 83rustbucket 07-15-2004, 12:18 AM Traffic does suck on sundays, it took me 1hour to get from gerogetown to idaho springs. Any way I would love to go but I will be on Holy Cross that weekend. I am up for going the first week in August if not then not until september, alot of wheeling planed. The trail starts off of HWY 9 just off the summit of Hoosier pass. IF you are coming from the east turn right on road 4, it is a blue sign with the number 4 on it and follow it all the way down. A good place to meat would be Breck, espically since I am coming the from the south. ZOSO 07-15-2004, 07:23 AM Hey chris if you need help just say so and I'll try my best to help ya. I was thinking of meeting up here in town with others then the springs guys and others if your going can meet us up there.

Chris, what part of your axle did you break? dc ZOSO 07-15-2004, 03:58 PM Come own people!!! Where is everyone at? Lets get this fsb run going. ZOSO 07-19-2004, 05:49 PM Dave you still wanna run this? Chris you need help so you can make it. Anyother colorado guys wanna go. There sure is a lot of us on the map but where is everyone when its time to go wheelin? Dangling_Dave 07-19-2004, 05:58 PM Dave you still wanna run this? Chris you need help so you can make it. Anyother colorado guys wanna go. There sure is a lot of us on the map but where is everyone when its time to go wheelin? Count me in! In the words of Arnold Schwarzenegger "if they don't have the guts, I call them girlie men". :histerica Come on Guys, even the SLC guys get out more often than we do. dc ZOSO 07-20-2004, 05:54 PM Okay all you "girlie men" better speak up or your gonna miss out on the fun. I guess if its just dave and I then we'll take lots of pics and then make fun of you all. Rob Dangling_Dave 07-20-2004, 05:58 PM Man what lameness. Maybe we should plan a Meet "N" Greet somewhere in town again. See if anyone would show up for that. dc 83rustbucket 07-20-2004, 07:35 PM I am going back up in the middle of august, but I alerdy have plans to go to holy cross this weekend. I am up for a meet and great, but i live 2hrs south of Denver so give some fair warning. :thumbup Dangling_Dave 07-20-2004, 08:00 PM Maybe for the next Meet N Greet we should find a place in the mountains that is close to everyone. Need to think about that one, any ideas??? Have fun on Holy Cross, tried to do that last year but I only had 33" tires and got hung up at French Creek. Are you camping up there? Here are some big broncos at Holy Cross last year http://www.supermotors.org/registry/vehicles/showmedia.php?id=80074 dc 83rustbucket 07-20-2004, 10:35 PM As I said before I will be in the Breck area in the middle of august to run wheller lake again, my father in law and his jeep are making the trip with us but any body else that wants to come is encouraged to come and help pull me out of something because I always get stuck or my POS breaks. Give my a day or two and i will give you some definate dates. I will be camping at Holy Cross, I may be riding and not driving if I cannot fix my bronco, My problem is posted in the 1980-1986 forum any help would be greatly appriciated. I had to cancel my chinaman and minnsweeper trip due to this problem. Any body sees a 1987-1991 bronco for sale with decent miles and a good body(no rust) PM me I am looking for an upgrade.

I say down by your house somewhere since your close to the highway. Dangling_Dave 07-21-2004, 02:31 PM Not sure when you want to meet on Saturday but how about at the McDonalds in the Home Depot parking lot at Wadsworth and I-70, it is about a block north of the highway. By the way do you have on-board air? dc ZOSO 07-21-2004, 02:43 PM Yep got oba after I go out and fix it here in a few min. Sounds good to me on the meeting spot. What time I don't care as long as its not to early cause I work nights. Dangling_Dave 07-21-2004, 02:46 PM Yep got oba after I go out and fix it here in a few min. Sounds good to me on the meeting spot. What time I don't care as long as its not to early cause I work nights. Is 10:00 to early or late for you? I am very flexable on the time. dc ZOSO 07-21-2004, 03:04 PM 10 will be fine. see you on sat at mc.d Unless you want to meet earlier we can. Dangling_Dave 07-21-2004, 03:07 PM 10 will be fine. see you on sat at mc.d Unless you want to meet earlier we can. Whenever is fine with me, name a time and I will be there. BTW my cell/home number is 720-849-9956, I don't have an internet connection at home so Friday afternoon is the last time you can e-mail me. dc ZOSO 07-21-2004, 03:19 PM we can meet at 10 then. my cell is 720-244-8286 BoulderBronco 07-21-2004, 06:16 PM Sorry guys. I haven't been on the board in a while. It sucks but I won't be able to make it. I have to work Sat and Sun and the truck is still not fixed. I am in the process of buying a house and moving so I am concentrating on that. If we can get a trip together late August or Sept that would be sweet. Maybe Moab. BTW dave it's the drivers side axle shaft and I don't have a spare. If either of you have a spare I'll take it. Also my drivers caliper is leaking so I need to replace that and the ABS is screwed up in the front. It's probably due to the axle breakage. That's not really a big deal though as I have a cutoff switch. Anyway have fun boys and take lots of pics. Blown 07-21-2004, 07:18 PM Keep trying to get us together. This weekend I'll be in Steamboat springs for a wedding on saterday. I want to take the bronc and thought about playing but can't till sunday. I'd be heading south towards Pueblo on sunday. FordX4Redneck 07-22-2004, 12:44 AM Are you still in the active reserve Paul? If so thank you for serving, and then serving some more! Let us know when you would be available for a MnG. dc funny you should ask that dave, today was my last day of in-active reserve. 1 year on the delayed entry program, 6 years active duty, and 1 year out as of july 20th. as the MnG, i will be doin my rear brakes on the bronco hopefully this weekend. and a few more little things an gettin her aligned some time next week. so i got my fingers crossed, maybe next week i can start drivin her more often, you wouldnt recognize my 78. it has undergone a lot of changes since you saw it last. it is now primer gray, i took the 3 inch body lift off and put a 1 inch on, i got a winch bumper and winch on the front of it, and there is no more rust on the drivers side except for the rear lower corner. so basicly i can get together as long as i dont have to drive too far. (dont want to take it farther than i have to for the first few weeks. FordX4Redneck 07-22-2004, 12:46 AM oooh and the deal fell through on that 79 bronco. have a good time this weekend and take lots of pics Dangling_Dave 07-22-2004, 12:40 PM Let me know when your Bronco is trail ready! I know a killer little trail about 45 minutes west of Denver that kicks butt. It is rated hard but not really all that bad in a Bronco. dc funny you should ask that dave, today was my last day of in-active reserve. 1 year on the delayed entry program, 6 years active duty, and 1 year out as of july 20th. as the MnG, i will be doin my rear brakes on the bronco hopefully this weekend. and a few more little things an gettin her aligned some time next week. so i got my fingers crossed, maybe next week i can start drivin her more often, you wouldnt recognize my 78. it has undergone a lot of changes since you saw it last. it is now primer gray, i took the 3 inch body lift off and put a 1 inch on, i got a winch bumper and winch on the front of it, and there is no more rust on the drivers side except for the rear lower corner. so basicly i can get together as long as i dont have to drive too far.

What channel you gonna be on? This sucks maybe we should all plan on something like billmore lake or such in a few weeks also. I would say spring creek but you will run into a lot of traffic and will probably wait 3-4hr at the rock garden. Dangling_Dave 07-22-2004, 03:31 PM Yep. What channel you gonna be on? This sucks maybe we should all plan on something like billmore lake or such in a few weeks also. I would say spring creek but you will run into a lot of traffic and will probably wait 3-4hr at the rock garden. Channel 14. Bill Moore was what I was thinking of when I posted to Paul. Close and has some pretty hard lines. dc FordX4Redneck 07-23-2004, 12:38 AM sweeeeet!!! i should be trail ready by the end of the weekend if the weather permits. not to sound like a ***** or anything, but is there a place i could park a truck and trailer up there?? seems itl be the maidn voyage i will probably break something. but hey i might be able to try out the winch. ZOSO 07-23-2004, 03:32 AM You should be able to park a tow rig at montgomery res. I guess the trail head is on the side. Come own up if you break someting we'll help you out any way possible. I'm wanting more broncos to go so lets get that beast going. and Paul weren't you selling a np203? I'm looking for one with a c-6 adapter on it to. FordX4Redneck 07-24-2004, 12:19 AM yes i did have a 203 mated to a c6 but i traded it for the winch bumper. i do have a spare 205 t case layin around. as long as my t case in my bronco is good. Dangling_Dave 07-25-2004, 02:10 PM Well for all of you who weren't there Rob and I had a great time.

BoulderBronco 07-26-2004, 04:05 PM How was the "Waterfall?" Sometimes it can be real tough other times not so bad. I heard the big mud pit is closed off too.
