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, Texas and Wyoming. 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: Arrastre Lake on August 10, 2008

Cabin Stamp Mill Lake Puddles

Trail run by Jeffrey and Mike S.:
"This was an exploratory trip to the Snowy Range Mountains in the Medicine Bow National Forest. We didn't know what to expect, having very little information to go on. The area looked interesting on the maps, and the trail to Phantom Lake had been described as testing the limits of skid plates and low range gears, so we set out to explore."

Member Trail Recommendation

Alanna recommends Gold Bar Rim as one of our favorite Utah trails (Grand County):

Why does Alanna recommend it?
"This trail was awesome, it has a vertical of slick rock that is pretty steep for me in my stocker. It was a little nerve wrecking having to go up and then down it during the day."

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 August 20th 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, Wyoming, 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!
