Hey Boys and Girls
Looking for a campground that we can ride the quads and bikes from and get to or start at the trails. Been to Estes Park area, Silverton,Ouray, Telluride and Durango. Looking in the Buena Vista area or close. All the local CG's have to trailer to the trail head. Still want to ride and do the touristy stuff. Raft hike fish and of course eat.

Thanks in advance !

Taylor is beautiful and has some challenging rides. We love it.

Taylor Reservoir is nice place. I didn't notice that the RV campground had much shade. There are lots of campsites in the National Forest on either side of TPR whether coming from the west or east.

I stayed in one of the full hook up campgrounds in Buena Vista. Before that in Taos and afterwards in South Denver. I think I would boon dock in one of the Forest sites for a few days. I've also camped in Salida.

Noooooooooo, there is no good riding anywhere in the state. Tell all your friends and look somewhere else... 🙂
If you do go to Taylor Park, be sure to stop by the trading post and visit the café for his awesome, all you can eat omelet bar. Great way to prepare for a day of riding.

Check out Ruby Mountain campground. No hook ups but right on the river. Near Fishermans bridge on the Arkansas. About 10 minutes from BV.

We're headed to Taylor Park this summer (July 4-12). Maybe we'll see you there. Never been, but some in our group have and say it's great.

If you ride hare scrambles, head to Louisiana, MO this weekend for the MORE race (racemore.net).

We attend the rzr forum ride at Taylor Park every year been the last 4 years. First time we were there 4 days last year 2 weeks. Every trip we find new trails that we haven't ridden. The ride from TP to Aspen is a great all day ride. I would like to branch off this year and spend some time in another area as well. Hopefully spending a month there this year.

We stayed in Taylor Park last summer at the Colorado Dream Ranch and its a great place. The staff are good people and friendly. Their is tons of riding in just about all directions. We're going back out there again this summer to stay. I would highly recommend it. Good Luck!

Ah, Colorado in the spring: the aroma of weed-smoke wafting through the air. I imagine with April 20th rolling around, there must be some top-notch events being held state-wide. A chance for Colorado to highlight the best and the brightest the state (and surrounding areas) have to offer.

Rocky mountain high, Colorado....


Yep....cause that's all we do here in CO. Hey "budman" I think the CA weed smoke is drifting into Reno. There's a Ton of states that have legalized the Medical MJ. Which anyone with 2 functioning brain cells knows is just the open door to recreational MJ. Making it legal doesn't mean everyone is doing it. Just like legal prostitution in Nevada doesn't make everyone a hooker.
