    Used to be you could drive over to James Peak and to Kingston Peak, but the Forest Service closed the trails. Glad I found your videos, helps me relive my youth and you adulthood on those trails. Now I'm stuck in Ohio. The road between Tolland and Central City I remember driving a T-Bird over it. When I was there in 2018 to scatter my mother's ashes at one of the James Peak trailheads, I found I wouldn't take that road now w/o a jeep, it has so deteriorated.

    Thanks for sharing another one Justin. We try to do a few different trails every time we visit Co. But being from Ky and only having about 2 wks we spend a lot of travel time just to get to Co or Ut then home again..... I have put Kingston Peak on my bucket list....

    Great video again. My 4wd club Norac keeps up the west magnolia side of Kingston. We did a lot of the buck&rail near the space house not too long ago. The trail is absolutely a beauty when there’s no fog.
    See ya around!

    The narrative of this video sounded like you where saying you don’t get out much ?! My last several trips into the hills have felt more like Scottish Highlands than Colorado Alpines!! That whole trail system is lovely, loads of photo ops. Ironic huh?!

      We've got all the smoke here in north Idaho today. I went out into the St. Joe valley to do a little gold panning and was within 25 miles of the Tumbledown fire. You couldn't see the mountains from a mile away.

      it is doing very well in all aspects with exception to 1. maintaining highway speed going up I70 west of denver. I struggled to maintain 70 mph up floyd hill. engine was just flat out screaming and best I could do was about 67.
