These first four are on Mosquito Pass.

Awesome pics!!! Wish I could have been there. My wife would have had an issue with Radical Hill though. I guess I'm gonna have to break her of her issues with steep drop-offs if we're gonna continue to live in Colorado. :wink:

AWESOME!!!! Its reasons like that why I want a Liberty man! I prefer to hit the trails on foot, but the trail heads are down roads like that!

Beautiful and I wanna go next time! Could a stock height Liberty make it through there?

I don't think a stock height Liberty could make it on Radical Hill without suffering some damage. There were a couple of spots where it gets a little bit ticklish.

Great pics, That 1st pic of Radical Hill is crazy, it looks like there's barly a road. Picture this::: the feeling of your back end kicking to the left on a trail like that... :roll: I use to live in Co Spgs back in the mid 70's, I can still remember mountian trails like that. I keep telling the wife. we gotta go.

Yeah. We had a fun adrenalin rush just past the first picture of Radical Hill. Going up and around a boulder, the suspension on the rear passenger tire unloaded so that it was barely touching the ground. I felt like we were going to roll off the edge, but we got out of it. That's what I call and Oh Sh@# moment.

Good pucker factor on that one. A couple of years ago, Hancock and Tomichi Pass (spelling?) were pretty good. I banged skid plates on my lifted XJ there a few times.

man, that is what I want to do....

just for the sake of day dreaming....where in colorado are these trails?....what would be the convenient city to find a holiday inn express?...

we drove through colorado on the way to and from utah last year....I'm beginning to think it must be the best state in the country...

lucky duck...

The Alpine Loop is pretty awesome for a first time Colorado wheeler. It is just outside of Lake City. Good for stock KJ's and awesome views.
