Our Raptor just sits outside along the house getting beat up by the seasons. Been thinking about selling it.

Good to see you popped in, I do miss your posts! Sounds like you're living the dream though!

haha, don't know if I would call it living the dream, but we enjoy it. I still commute to MT 4 days per week though. Alarm goes off at 3:25am. work a 10+ hr day. repeat Monday thru Thursday. Maybe that's why I haven't posted in a while. lol.

How is the ATV trail riding and boondocking? I started looking at the state trail maps but need to research it more. Thanks

Easy to find boondocking sites. A lot of people will complain about the Sheridan people who leave their RVs on the mountain. They have a 14 day limit in one spot but then they will move them to another area of the mountain. Keep them up there all summer. I’ve always been able to find a site and we have a 40’ TH. Sometimes we’ve made a new spot. We’ve left ours up there. Our first summer here we left ours up there It was like a vacation cabin. I’d get home from work and my son and I would run up the mountain and go motorcycle riding. Stop at the TH and take a break, have lunch, etc then either go ride some more or head back home.

I prefer the forest service maps. You can access them online. There are a lot of trails but quite a few of them dead end and your stuck having to go back on the same trail.

Google Fisher ATV and Bighorn Mountains. He’s been here twice. Once he stayed at Bear Lodge the other time at Elk View Inn. Not sure you’ll be able to find the first time he visited. But I do know the second time is on YouTube. We saw him riding.

I would also recommend YouTuber Doug Roberts. His videos are of him riding a motorcycle in the Bighorns. His videos tell you what trail he’s on. Not the most entertaining videos but gives you a good idea what the trails are like. At least the ones around the Red Grade area.
