    home 😢 growing up here was amazing. Seeing this video from my dorm room in college is bring tears to me. I can't stop thinking about going back for summer. I have made so many amazing memories in this woods.

    What a fun place to explore! I love the old ghost town and all the buildings. I think my favorite part was the bridge in the creek~The drone footage is amazing!

      thanks and nice one! kind of want to upgrade my drone lately haha. the biggest things that helped me were looking up videos for best settings for raw, how to color correct and i forget the channel but their video on “flying like a filmmaker,” all those were a big help. if you go back to my 2nd Slaughterhouse video that’s the first drone, should be a noticeable difference haha, i think the sand dune video was the first time i thought it looked better than terrible.

      nice, pretty cool place, wish we had time for a swim! my hip flexors are pretty blown out from skateboarding and they’re still off, my right one locked up at dinner last night haha. turns out watching TV for 2 months isn’t good for your muscles haha.

    This is actually one of the stops on the Denver, South Park and Pacific Railroad. It starts in Denver and went up Waterton canyon and down to the Platte river where the abandoned hotel is. Then it went along SW platte river road to Buffalo creek. Then it headed NW to pine valley. Theres a jeffco park there now called Pine valley ranch park. The trail in the park that heads west is the old rail road grade and is called Narrow gauge trail. It dead ends at the river not far from Crossons. The grade goes along the river all the way to Bailey. Then it heads south over Kenosha pass and on to Nathrop outside of Buena Vista. It heads West on chalk creek road out of Nathrop and heads to the St Elmo ghost town. Then it winds its way and goes through the Alpine tunnel and comes out the other side of the divide. It goes to Pitkin and Parlen and ends at Gunnison. If you want to do some fun 4 wheeling explore the area around St Elmo. You can hike to the East portal of the tunnel. You can go over Hancock pass to the West portal. You may have to hike some because a section of the RR grade collapsed a year or two ago.

      as the story goes.. they were mining gold there and also had guests stay as they passed through on the train. eventually someone looted all the gold and dynamited the mine collapsing it and then screwed the town and everyone left. i only found a few stories on it and they’re all the same but not sure if everyone’s just echoing the first one which is pretty much what i’m doing right now haha.

    Buffalo creek burn area?

    • @BRollOffroad
      @BRollOffroad  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      this might be part of the High Meadow? i’d have to compare a burn map/road map/trail map but High Meadow and Buffalo Creek burns touch each other so could be either depending what spot.

    How much are your tires.

    • @BRollOffroad
      @BRollOffroad  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      these are usually around $210 a tire but i get a little discount and they’re cheaper as they get smaller if you are looking into them. mine are 275/85/16.

      it’s probably closer to Pine than what i consider Bailey as the crow flies.. but i went to Bailey first to get here so that’s what it gets haha. Google Maps (at the trailhead) says Bailey, Apple Maps says Sedalia hah.

      @@BRollOffroad I was born and raised in Colorado you could drive down to the second gate from buck gulch. The road washed out and forest service closed the upper gate. It’s been 10+ years since I last hiked down in there. I hunted that area for years. I now live in Montana, Colorado got over run with people. It’s a cool ghost town it sucks the bridge got taken out.
