Welcome!

These pages feature trails run by the members of TrailDamage.com (why that name?), a club based in Colorado. Here you can find information about trails in Colorado, Utah, Arizona, California and Texas. Each trail page contains a description of the trail, as well as trail features like rock climbing, water crossings and mud. Pictures, maps, and Google Earth information (what is Google Earth?) are featured here, with many more pictures and movies within each Trail Report.

Latest Trail Report: Shelf Road on June 21, 2008

Open Area Tiny Waterfall View from the Shelf

Trail run by Brian D., Don, Mark U., Mike S., Roger and Walt:
"We were looking forward to all new trails for the day, and doing the challenging part of the Gold Belt Tour. It sounded like it was going to be a really scenic day with good friends, and everyone was in a good mood. We had a new meeting place in Woodland Park and things were a bit confusing at first, but once we all found each other things got off to a great start."

Member Trail Recommendation

Matt F. recommends Golden Spike as one of our favorite Utah trails (Grand County):

Incredible view of Moab and the La Sal mountains

Why does Matt F. recommend it?
"Steep, great obstacles, and nothing broke"

Invite Only

The only way to join the club is to be invited by a current club member. We have quite a few members! We're not the usual kind of 4x4 club -- there are no membership fees and no meetings. We're just a group of friends who get together as often as possible to run trails in the area.

Trail Damage 2008

Robert on Cliff Hanger

The best Trail Damage of 2008 as of July 4th goes to Robert running Cliff Hanger on May 29th, 2008. He gave it everything he had to get up the last obstacle on the way out, and his rear axle blew up. Wow!

TrailDamage.com and Google

We like what Google does with mapping and satellite imagery, so we use Google Maps and Google Earth to provide even more information about the locations of trails and obstacles. Google Maps make searching for trails easier in Colorado, Utah, Arizona, California and Texas. If you really want to see it before you get there, use the Google Earth Placemarks and Tracks found on the trail pages of this site to check out the terrain first.

Get Stuff

You can get whole seasons of full-sized images and movies on DVD as well as cool stuff featuring the TrailDamage.com logo. Check it out!
