A few steep parts and 2 or 3 creek crossings with somewhat steep banks, some tricky parts but all of them are easy to bypass. There's a bunch of other trails that start along the main one, i didn't do any since i didn't have much time to screw around.

honestly i didn't even need to use 4Low, i could've done most of it in 2High.

seven mile has a rocky area that can barely scratch your tcase crossmember on a stocker if you aim for the biggest rocks
its a super easy trail but its all thats open year round in our ranger district (canyon lakes)

sometimes after a super wet winter/spring it gets really washed out, 2 years ago they had it closed for like 3 months in the early summer because it was so bad

I hated sevenmile. Wasted an entire tank of gas driving to that trail running it and coming back since it was in like rustic Fort Collins so it was like a 70 mile drive just to the trail. The most I flexed was on a rock I parked on that wasn't even on the trail.

Of the folks who regularly chime in in this thread, it seams most live in Aurora, one is in Elizabeth, one in Boulder, one in Loveland. I'm in Sedalia.

Quite a few of them like RC Crawlers, some of them like shooting, and our rigs span the gamut from stock up to pretty fully built.

Btw, speaking of guns, does anyone know good shooting places other than LHC?

That is one of the nicer looking truss designs that I have seen, and $150 is quite reasonable. I'm bookmarking them.

(Copied from TraiDamage)From Ft. Collins, take Highway 287 around LaPorte. Take Highway 14 left at Ted's Place and just before the town of Rustic you turn right on County Road 69 following signs to Boy Scout Camp. Sevenmile Road 225 is 0.4 miles away on the left.

That's the factory color name. ;-)

There's a bunch of light wheeling closer in but most of it is officially closed or just really hairy during the winter. So, it's pretty much up to FoCo or down to ColoSpgs. Or there's always Carnage Canyon in Buena Vista, which is open year round.
