Do you want to see the world from a mountain top in the Colorado Rockies? If you do, come and join the COFA National Off-Road event on August 8th - 10th of 2025 in Ouray Colorado! We'll ride some of the most incredible scenic trails in southern Colorado. The views are breathtaking at 12,000 feet, and will create memories for years to come.
We'll meet Friday night, Aug 8th, at 5:00 PM for a meet-and-greet BBQ. On Saturday, August 9th, we will look at some old mines and ghost towns as we ride our 4-wheelers and learn about the history of Colorado's mining industry. You'll see mines from the 1860's and 1870's. There will be a Cowboy Chuck Wagon dinner on Saturday evening with your COFA Off-Road group. Bring your camera, sunscreen, and enjoy the world from the top of the mountains.
