A big thanks to all the members that helped us gather toys for Christmas. The Eagle County 4x4 club organized this event and several members jumped in and helped.

boondock like Chris and Bret. This DVD is $25 and $5 of the sale goes
back to the Holy Cross Powder Hounds!

Hidden Gems Wilderness CampaignAre you ready to loose thousands of acres of riding area? The areas that we have been riding for decades and that have been ridden by our family's for generations are at risk! A well funded and organized group is working hard to come in and change areas that we use to be completely non-motorized and non accessible by any means other than foot. This will impact winter activities, business that thrive from access to the back country by motorized means, access by children and elderly, hunting activities and the list goes on and on.
Help us fight back and keep these areas that should be available to all people. Visit the White River Forest Alliance. This is a group of people that are snowmobile and back country enthusiasts. We are not trying to keep anyone out of the forest and nobody should keep us out either!

Hidden Gems Wilderness Campaign
The map below (click for larger image) is a draft of the proposed Hidden Gems Wilderness. Just in our area alone, this plan would have a huge impact on the Lower Piney area, Homestake valley, and several acres in the Flat Tops.Please check out our site and provide any feedback on the Discussion Form page.
