Thanks Alan. Id figure riding in a group would be considered supervised?

I'm assuming that's an atv, not a sxs. I haven't seen any state that someone under 16 can operate a sxs, even with the atv safety card.
A registered ATV or UTV may be operated by any person aged 16 or older. Additionally, children aged 10-15 may operate a registered ATV or UTV in Colorado under the supervision of a licensed driver.

Another thing to consider if you carry firearms with you. handguns are fine but if anyone carries a long gun it must be inside a hard or zippered case with no round in the chamber or the magazine. but there is not much to shoot up there, too many people and the bears don't like the taste of out of stater's.

Another thought to @Alan ..... I don’t know the history of overheating in a 500..... that may be more of 1k problem.....
But altitude must play a part .... or just the LONG uphills.... my will overheat pretty much no matter the outdoor temp....
Never happens in Arkansas....

Might be illegal around here too but they turn the other cheek if someone isn’t being stupid and are in control. Daughter has talked to Sheriffs and Rangers on multiple occasions as far back as about 8 when out alone with no problems whatsoever. Same with the boys when younger. The Airstrip area gets you stopped but they just check for registration occasionally then ask a couple questions and say have a good day

If they are passengers you are ok, they just can't operate.

Most authorities would rather see kids being outdoors doing stuff as long as they are careful. A badge heavy person might give some grief.

Come on down @CumminsPusher and ride with us. We'll have a good time no matter what and the Coors light is super fresh !
I was kinda assuming my favorite beer would be fresh lmao!
Man I’m trying and I’d like to finally meet you and a few others. Sounds like a lot of fun. There’s a lot to do by then and not much to do it with but are pretty serious. If friends can make it it’ll be a little easier on my daughter. Got a month!
