4WD Fat Beagle

[Loc]

Andre,

The website is www.traildamage.com. The trails that I had planned to run were California Gulch, Hurricane Pass and Corkscrew Gulch (run together) and Immogene Pass and Ophir Pass (run together). The website provides a description, rating, directions and a map of each trail. I have run all of these and there are all doable in a stock Jeep. Give me a call if you have questions on the website or trails.

Loc, sorry to hear that you have to BAIL out of your own 4-Wheel Rally, but work does have to come first. Peg and I won't be able to attend this rally either, cause Peg has to work, Somebody has too !


Now, you really should update your signature Avatar with a picture of the new front end, and your new headlamp assemblies. I'll bet they make the bus look like a new one coming down the road?

See you for sure in Kerrville, at the Fat Beagle Bash over Labor Day weekend.

We have a busy time ahead of us but for those that want to run the trails LOC has listed we can meet everyone in Silverton for the day. We ran CA Gluch, Hurricane Pass and Corkscrew today. Our house is 50 miles north of Silverton. We do all the San Juan trails at least once a year, some more.
Took these today.

Larry,

Thanks for the offer to be our tour guide. As of now it looks like there wil be Scott and Cyndie, Patrick and Sherry and Ann and I at this little mini rally. We will arrive late on Friday 23 July and depart early Sunday 8 August. Once we know when everyone else wil be there we can try to schedule a day that works for you to try a few trails.

[Larry W]

Let know, Don't know which we like the best, wheeling the San Juans or traveling in the Bus. Both are great.

Loc,
To h--- with work!!! take the reins of your own destiny, don't be a slave, live life while you can !!!!
Oh ya by the way I need to be back in the office on the 8th of Aug.
Anyway Sherry and I will be there either late Sun or early Mon. and would certainly welcome a tour guide so thanks Larry for anything you could provide. I spent some additional money on our Jeep for lower gears and lockers just so there would be less of a chance to embarrass myself on the trails. (dont mention that extra money thing to Sherry) lol

Well a few of did make it to Durango for the "Not the Fat Beagle 4x4 Bash". No Fat Beagle in attendance. So today Larry and Pat took us on a tour of some beautiful Colorado mountains. Patrick and Sherry Fix, Scott and Cyndia Parks, there son JJ, and Scott's sister Tracy and her son Morgan. Here is 1 picture to show you what you missed.

Can't see it well but thats a Pog medallion against that pole. We are all having a great time here. The weather is cool, scenery is amazing and there isn't enough time to get in all we want to do. Seems the trails here are easier for me to negotiate then the roads in Maine. No mishaps as yet but we are going out again Friday so we'll see. Larry and Pat were very gracious in giving their time to show us the trails and very knowledgable about the area and it's history. We are all very grateful to them and really appreciated meeting them. Everyone that gave thought to attending this gathering but didn't really missed a good one. Hopefully Sherry will be able to figure out how to post some pictures from the camera I dropped and broke, but if not I'm sure the others will post from their unbroke cameras. We are off to the Durango to Silverton train trip.

We had a great time with the group. At 12,900 feet they were still breathing. We wondered about the elevation but all did fine. Hope they have a great time Friday doing Cinnamon Pass abd Engineer Pass. If they do as they did with us they will do great.

Thank you Larry and Pat for taking us on a adventure to the "top of the world".I still can't believe our big Dodge fit on the trail. The scenery was spectacular. We toured Silverton, Ouray and Durango. Scott rode his dirt bike a couple of times.(Larry, he did the Alpine Loop on Friday and waited at the Bent Elbow for me to pick him and the bike up) Scott's sister Tracey came from FL with one of her sons. There may have only been nine of us but we all had a blast. Colorado is just beautiful. Can't wait to come back again. Looking foward to seeing Patrick, Sherry, Andre, Ann, Larry and Pat in the future. JJ smiled that he had the best time out of everyone.
