Gold Mine 4x4 and Campout, South Fork, Colorado
06/19/2022 - 07/01/2022
This is an open invitation to anyone interested in a trip to Colorado for some back country adventure. This year our intent is to camp out in the mountains. We will pick an area based on who is going and what type of vehicles. For the most part, any 2, 3 or 4 wheeled vehicle can make it to the designated camp area. We are taking our two Jeeps and the Camper. The back country area that we pick will sustain any type of RV, van camper, or tent camping. However it will be 100% BOONDOCKING. *** There are many RV and Camping sites in South Fork for those that want hookups and or closer to town.** You can still drive out during the day to participate with the group.
From the camp area there are a lot of things to explore for whatever level you choose and what your vehicle can handle. We always take our dogs and back country protection. Some of the activities will include:
Hiking
Sight seeing
Exploring old mines
4x4 trails
Campfires every evening
Stream and lake fishing
Gold panning and collection
Other options depending on interest may include:
Shopping at mountain shops (South Fork, Creede and Pagosa Springs)
Tours of Creede Fire Station and the Bachelors Loop
Hot tub and massage in Pagosa Springs
You can always go early and/or stay later!!!!
We also go back in late September / early October for a week of off roading during the Fall Colors Trip.
