ImageOur first "real" trip of the year was great fun! We arrived at the trail in the early morning on the 28th and enjoyed the scenery for most of the day. Although we had a bit of a rough time finding the right trail (the Rampart Range area has MANY unmarked trails), we had a blast playing around. In the first 1/2 mile or so of the first trail, we took out about 10 trees. Some we were able to move by hand, but one we had to strap to Roxy & pull out of the way.

Once we got past the trees, it was pretty smooth sailing. Of course we had 1 or 5 wrong turns - but that's what wheeling is all about. We did manage to find a few fun obstacles (probably only a 3-4 scale - but fun none the less). I was able to get Roxy on a pretty decent hill & she got a little tippy for a minute (sorry, no pics).

Rampart Rd had a few signs saying that it was closed up near Dakan Rd, our second destination. Angie & I followed the guys a few miles up, then headed for home. I'd say it was a pretty great first run of the year!
