New To CO area.... Trail questions

[Mr_Pat]

Hello everyone. I am new to the area(live in Cheyenne) Anyways we are planning a trip next month and I am looking for some trail recommendations. We are picking up some friends in Denver and are planning on heading west to Moab for a day or two. I have 4 or 5 days to kill with this trip. I was thinking about Imogene Pass area.

Can anyone recommend any good roads, trail, routes between Denver and Moab.


ps I have an H3 with UCP, rocker protectors and winch. I would like to stay away from anything super difficult.


Thanks!!

the two that i would recommend if coming in the hot season are slickrock campground just north of town but south of the co. river or canyonlands campground its more central to town . both have swimming pools and if you tell them " Steve the wood guy" sent you , you might get a discount . i supply firewood to both of them .

if you dont mind roughin it you can camp here at the blacksheep outpost . its nothin fancy but its free ;) . most that come with kids need a place with a pool , it keeps them from goin nutz . the whole last week has been in the high 90's but its a dry heat :giggling:

Funny that nobody from CO responded yet.

Neo's the only one, he's never been on this side of the divide and he gets whole groups lost on his hometown trails.
