Trail information
Hey all, I usually hit Metberry Gulch a few times a year. Its a good moderate trail that is out and back, a few off camber sections, V notch, and some rutted out areas to test suspensions flex. Enough for fun, but you wont bash your rig.
As long as its dry it'll be just good fun, if its wet thats another story, but the forecast is currently looking good, 50 degrees and sunny.
Id say 33's are recommended, but ive also spotted a completely stock third gen tacoma through it. They just scraped their hitch on chicken scratch which is normal.

The plan
Meet here at 10 a.m. , at deckers colorado, theres a large parking lot, and restaurant where you can buy a few snacks if you want before the trail. I'll be on channel 6 with my radio, Ill also bring an extra.
We'll leave to head to the trail at 10:30 a.m.
This will take most of the day, and we'll break for lunch at the end of the trail which sits right on the South Platte River. Be sure and bring your own food and drinks, ill have my Coleman stove, and cookware if anyone does need it.
If you have a fishing license, and want to throw a few cast out, its a great spot.
This is also a dispersed camping spot, so be mindful of campers if there are any.
Well finish up, head back to Cedar Mountain Road, depending on time we'll either head North up to deckers and the highway, or South and make a loop by hitting Phanton Creek Road, into Little Creek Ridge, Finish at highway 67.
Stuff to bring.
Spare or patch kit
tools
recovery strap
food
water
I'd like to keep the number of rigs to around 5, max 6.
