I've been wanting to do the "Powerline Rollercoaster" and Aztec Wash... (1 Viewer)

I'm calling it "Aztec Loop" but it combines the "Powerline Rollercoaster" with the Aztec Wash trail. If we do this loop clockwise we can stop and eat lunch in Nelson or if we do it counter-clockwise we can stop and have a beer in Nelson. Either way, it looks fun. Here's a write-up of a very similar run done by some Jeep guys: Eldorado Mountains switchbacks to a roller coaster trail. - https://www.jeeptheusa.com/powerline-to-roller-coaster-30.html

I would recommend it in the fall or winter. Summer could be a very hot ride.

I figured as much. Maybe a nice Halloween Ride down there.
