>>2789020Look at this road going through the National Forest out of Basalt. Looks like a great back country road to park and go deer hunting or primitive camping right? This is exactly you learn to look for in New England, Appalachia, upstate NY, etc. Guess what? The road is GATED AND PRIVATE. This is just one problem that has manifested over and over again and is completely unique to this region. Do you think I'm just making shit up? The only half decent road is Fryingpan but you're still dodging private property everywhere and you have to do massive climbing to make any progress away from the parking areas or cross a fucking river somehow. It's just been endless bullshit from the moment I arrived here and no other state is like this.
