Mild trails near Vail, CO (1 Viewer)

[Sleepy]

My folks are renting a house in Vail in July for a family get together (13 adults, 9 kids). I plan to take the Swank Tank out and do some day trips. By then I will have slightly larger tires (BFG KO2s 255/75 or 265/70 most likely). Running boards will be gone and Daystar leveling kit in the front. Not looking to do anything crazy and deal with too much trail carnage. Will be solo vehicle trips and need to be able to drive back home to Iowa at the end of the week. Any trail recommendations are greatly appreciated.

I have Toytec Boss 2.0, 265/70r17 KO2s, and sliders. I did Hagerman and Mosquito passes last week without touching the sliders and only scraped the hitch/rear bumper a little bit. I did air down to 20lbs, mostly because the trails are rocky and I figured it would reduce any chance of a puncture.
