Taylor Park, Colorado

Heading out to Taylor Park on August 14th. Staying in the Cabins there the 15th thru the 20th. Then going up to Silverthorne for 3 days to ride the Shrine/Ptarmigan pass areas. Coming back the 24th. Will post some pics when I get back. A little video of where we will be riding. Hope to get about 600 miles of riding in in 7 days.

Looks like fun , there is nothing like ridding out west.We are going to marysvalle ut to ride the utv rally in august .

Another great trail ride is over to Aspen an back, we'll be out there that same week maybe run into you. Have a safe trip this will be our 4th. trip there.

Great place to go.  BobT's maps are dead on -- I've been with him twice.

Just me and a friend.

nice!!

Looks like some fun --- Be safe

  Good Post.  Maybe a ride out west will be a plan one day, but not in the near future.  Thanks for the information though.  It sure looks like it will be a lot of riding fun...MD

The riding is great, but equally great is the adventure/sight seeing. This is a must do trip! I'm taking a riding buddy with me and the Maverick. (His Teryx is staying home) Splitting the expenses makes it very affordable. 10 days lodging and gas for the trip will cost us $1000 each. A long weekend at Ashland resort costs $5-$600 or more depending on what unit you stay in. This will be my 3rd trip out there, and it is just as awesome every time. Spending time in the Rocky Mountains never gets old. It's an item on the bucket list that never gets checked off.

Yankee you are only 260 miles from moab if you get a chance it is something a country boy needs to see,let me tell ya you hit a few of them trails and it will tighten things up.

I went out to Moab in 2007. It was awesome as well.  Heres a picture of me at Chicken corner.

Here are some videos I made at Taylor Park a few years ago.


Mt. Antero - very high with drop offs

 
Flag Mtn-  easy and beautiful

 
Upper Italian- one real scary section

 
Devils Punchbowl - one scary section 

 Great Video's.

The Upper Italian was far easier on a SxS.  Not nearly as scary.

This last trip we did take the SxS's up to the top of some mountain that coming down on the backside was tight steep switchbacks.  Wish I knew the name.  Really exciting.

The first trip I took to Taylor Park in 2010 with BobT cost me less than $600 for a week.  Split gas 3 ways and stayed in Taylor Park in a 3 bed cabin.  Incredible deal.

Tellurium Creek

Yep that's it Bob.  Great place.  I tried to find pics of the switchbacks on the back side.  They were kinda tight and put the driver side on the edge.  Fun Stuff.

  Great additional videos BobT.  As already mentioned, it is too far for me at this time, but maybe another time in the future...MD

BIG THANKS to BobT for the Maps and help with them. Got me set up for this trip!
