If you want to take your 4-wheeler and see what it can really do, take a trip out to Peekaboo Gulch Road. This 4-wheeler trail is just over 2-miles long and is a rough and tough ride all the way through.
This 4-wheeler trail is part of the San Isabel National Forest and as with all national forest areas they do require that you register your 4-wheeler at the ranger's station and you have a spark arrestor and noise muffler installed prior to riding this trail. Helmets and goggles are also required gear when riding in this national forest managed area.
Since this is a very steep and challenging 4-wheeler trail, don't attempt to ride it unless you're experienced in maneuvering a 4-wheeler; be very honest with yourself about your abilities or you could find yourself in over your head quickly - if you are a seasoned rider - you will find this one fun ride.
Don't ride this 4-wheel trail alone, make sure you are with a 4-wheeler rider equally as experienced in riding challenging terrain as yourself. Cell phone reception is hit and miss in this area, so don't rely on your cell phone as your lifeline to the world. Be sure to tell someone back home exactly where you will be riding your 4-wheeler and when to expect you home.
