Our club is planning for WOW (Wolverines Out West) 2020 which will be held in Estes Park Colorado the week of July 13-17th. Our trail master for the event has been busy preparing a list of trails complete with GPS tracks to keep us going in the right direction.  For planning purposes we are looking at daily trail rides Monday through Friday which allows travel to/from Colorado on the weekends.

We need YOUR help first by letting us know your level of commitment to this trip.
The trip is open to all club members and invited guests. There is no registration fee or cost to attend other than your own travel, food and lodging.

Camping

Note: This is adjacent to Rocky Mountain National Park and spaces fill quickly and there are numerous limitations for RV and tow vehicles such as size and age of the vehicle/camper.
Driving:
Distance (from Troy, MI)  - 1294 miles
Flying – closest airport - Denver
Fronter, United, Spirit, Delta
Denver to Estes Park 65-70 miles
Vehicle Transport/Shipping – Cristian has a preliminary quote of $1,500  round trip (per vehicle)– if we have 5 Jeeps to fill up the transport trailer. This is still less than the cost of a daily rental so keep that in mind.
