The weather was great for this one. I never did connect with Cracker but we had a good ride. Not much snow at all.

Looks like a great trail and looks like a ton of fun. Nice the weather worked out too.

Actually that area is right on the front range and tends to get snow - but melt it off in a real hurry. Lower elevations and sparce forest will do that. Though so far this year - snow has been scarce to say the least in most of the state.

If you are looking for snow bashing on the Rampart - you had best plan on hitting it shortly after a storm, or finding deep canyons to play in (there are some places that hold the snow very well)

I heard the cabin at the bottom down there got burned out? Is that true? Too bad if it is.

The cabin is long gone, can't even tell it was there anymore. We saw the fresh tracks going to Metberry, so we decided to hit Longwater and Hackett gulch. Too much snow to get to the end of the trails, but we had alot of fun geting as far as we could. We made it past the rock obstcale on Hackett, but the next hill had too much snow. We turned around there and headed out towards Divide. Hit more snow on the main road and had to pull out a jeep that was stuck in the middle of the road. Fellow was from Florida, rental jeep. He was trying to check on some property he owns... Lucky for him we were going that way, or he would still be stuck I think... Will post picture later.
