I'd call that a very decent ride report Dan! Thanks for sharing!

I'd love to do a trip like that...maybe one day!

 

EXCELLANT ride report for sure!

 

Looks like a great place to ride, lots of neet stuff to see and explore.

 

Yeah , great place to ride! I'd feel better if I had a riding buddy, especially since cell phone coverage is very spotty. I'd also like to find some riding out there that is single track. If anyone has that kind of info, please clue me in. Also would like to find some more accurate maps for the Forrest access roads. I have the De Lorme Gazetteer, but it's not that accurate, as far as names and places of the more obscure roads/trails. I probably need to get in contact with the respective forest offices. Again if anybody can clue me in, thx.

At the point where I jammed the bike in the snow on the Rollins Pass rd, I was probabbly a little over 11,000 ft. I was just up around the bend from Jenny lake. Ahead the railbed crosses the pass at 11,680 ft. Bike really ran great.

I will say that the last time (2yrs ago) I was out there the stock bike wouldn't even start at 8400ft. I tried different jets, but ended up getting it to run OK by removing the airbox lid completely.

Your heading to a fun spot. I wish I could get down there with my bike. We have done part of the Alpine loop (Ouray to Lake City) in the truck a couple times.
I know you will but stay safe and take pics.

LOL good one! I'll let it slide this time my friend...but next time.

 

Oh by the way, awesome pictures, I can't get over how dark blue the sky was. Thanks for putting this up man!

 

Sick pics! Looks like fun riding area

 

Looks like a blast. Much better than what we got here. And if you need a riding buddy call me!

 

Hey baldie i thought maybe you got rid of the KLX haven't heard anything out of you for a while. We'll have to meet up for a ride. Looks like they blocked off our one spot though
