Arkarch, that explains all the strange looks you guys get when you show up to the trails with the Touareg! Their are so many people out there that don't even know that the Touareg is a very off road capable vehicle. People look at me with disbelief when I tell them that I have been off roading with mine, they all assume that it's more of a great handling on road SUV then anything.

We actually had a pretty small group this year. I think there were 11 total Tregs in attendance including the V10 VWoA sent out for us. The last day we only had 8 left so we just caravaned the trails that day.

Yep, not much growth... nobody new this year. We had a few who could not make it; and one couple that returned from earlier years. Still, it was a very pleasant week.

The FJ Summit that proceeded us had a reported 350 vehicles, including 100 party crashers - but that in my opinion is way too large. One of the more experienced offroad FJ-centric groups I know from SoCal registered, but did the the trails on their own -after- the sanctioned departures so that they could enjoy the area together at their own election and pace.

Colorado Rally is a great way to learn to trail with the Touareg. Come on out!
