Meet up with a bunch of folks from Front Range 4x4 for an enjoyable
Memorial Day in the forest. Our first stop was Bright Trail. Most of
the trail, including the two fingers pointing to the left, was
accessible to the family automobile - graded and clear. The one finger
to the right was typical for a trail. For Miller Rock, we tried to explore the northern / northeastern dead ends as I and others have never been to them. I'd go back for more exploring. There was a nice meadow where the group sat to enjoy lunch and conversation. |

Looking to the South |
There had been a fair bit of harvesting done, which is likely why the road was graded. There were two or three of these fields of scrap. |
Heading west/northwest on the first of the two westerly fingers. |
