Balanced Rock Day Run

Postby Crazyone » Fri Jun 15, 2012 10:25 am

I found out on Saturday that I wasn't working Sunday so I called up a friend and decided to head up for a day trip. I had never been on Rampart Range road so we headed up there. We ended up going to Balnced Rock Trail. It was a nice drive. Not very challenging but we had a great time.

Sorry it took a few days to post but it's been kind of crazy this week.

I like it, a lot. Would love to do a nice little back trail cruise!

Looks like a fun day! Some of the best offroad trips don't have any pucker factor.

That looks like a great trip. I think a CCB Trail Ride up there may be in order.
