hi, does anybody know areas in CO to legally drive through the fields/hills etc with no road or trail at all, just plane ground?
thx

NO! There is only 1 place that you can drive anywhere you want(Grand Jct desert), every where else requires a trail. Making your own trail is VERY illegal!

If it is your own land and no water or mud is involved then you can. If there is water or mud it may be a "wetland"(in Colo this covers almost all water), then no driving there either, even if it is your own land.


STAY THE TRAIL...please

It's hard enough to keep trails open around here, please do not make it harder.

sure, tread ligtly that's why I was asking about places where such driving is LEGALLY PERMITTED.

thanks for the info about the grand gunction area - where exactly is it or what's the name of it so i could search?

i also heard about a place (state park?) with sand dune-like landscape with no-road driving, somewhere northeast in the walden area. anybody know that place?

You could try CORE.

The Grand Junction Desert is the big area around the airport, north of town. That is the ONLY place that one can go anywhere he wants with or without a trail. The area around Montrose is now closed except 2 trails. and the area by Walden is the Walden sand dunes state park, and is not open to go anywhere you want to, you need to stay on trails or in certain areas.


CORE is closed in the winter.
