Would it be impolite to poke him in the ass? It would be wonderful to have a more secure location on private property.
If you can find the name of the private land owner, PM it to me, and I will go see him when I go to Montrose to shop.
You want to cold call on a guy and ask him if 10-12 strangers can park their trucks and trailers in his yard for a week….😳
You're lucky...I was out on a snow machine for a couple hours and when I got back at the truck...window was broken and the cab was cleaned out including two guns and a 35 mm camera worth more than the guns. Guess it depends upon your past experiences and how much trust you put into trail head parking lots. YMMV!!!
Well first of all, I would never leave such valuables in my vehicle at a trailhead….😳
No need to try to defend your position, Since a private lot was suggested I would just feel better if a more private and maybe safer parking lot was available. If it is not available then we'll deal with it. Vehicle break in's can and do occur most anywhere.
If I lived a little closer I'd give it a shot. Rancher's association might be a place to find leads.
Too early for an alternative but that sucks!!
Guess August is the rainy season there? HA! The West is in for a hell of a fire season this year?
Late July through mid August is the peak monsoon season for western Colorado. Of course the monsoons can start lightning fires…..
