this vid is from this past monday... yep, i spent the entire week working and just got around to this video tonight (friday!)  ;D 8)
i may be getting back into the swing of work ethic... college made me lazy.  i still refuse to get up much before 7 though.   ;D

anyway... the long awaited dirt section.   ;D  sorry about the GIANT pits in the windshield... happens in colorado. 
i want to borrow dads ural over the winter to haul work supplies so i can actually ride.   8)

Right that's it. I'm jacking in my job, selling the house, packing my stuff, if the missus and the dog wanna come along that's fine, but I'm moving to heffay-land ;) Seriously, though, I watched the videos and the only traffic I could see was yourself and another pick-up parked on the side of the road. In 15 minutes of my commute I come across half of the south of England!
Question: what was the barrier across the road for? Is that the extent of someone's property or a safety device to notify whoever that there's people up in those hills when the weather's bad?

big elk meadows is a private community and the gate just happens to be at the highest point of the road... the paved part is county road the dirt part is private... hence, the dirt.  the gate is for "privacy"... all the houses and lakes are another 1/4 mile down from the gate.

the gate is at 7725 feet in altitude... a clue as to why there is so little traffic.   ;)

here's a google earth view.... you can see the fork in the road (bottom right) that is at the beginning of the vid, then the hairpin to the right.  the vid path is marked in green and the remodel i'm working at is the "house".  so, you're basically looking at a fairly upscale lakeside community out in the boonies... from above.   ;D



my house is to the southeast about 35 miles... as you can tell, not as the crow flies.
