Bronco Driver's Super Celebration West in Buena Vista, CO has kicked off! Bronco Nation is here for some community fun: W-F trail drives and a Thursday cleanup, a welcome party tonight, our annual pancake breakfast on Saturday, and more! Get some shade in our hospitality tent, and we'll have the Adirondack chairs out for congregating all day and fires for s'mores in the evening.

We're also hosting the all-new 2025 Bronco Sport Badlands with Sasquatch package; come check it out and look over the updates in person!

Feel free to use this thread to post your favorite Broncos from the show (so many great ones of all gens) and trail pics, and Bronco Nation staff will be doing the same. It's been awesome meeting several of you already from the forums; it only takes one event to turn into a familiar face :)

Thanks for all the pics, I sure hope you are getting seat time in your Bronco as well.

Not this year; I'm helping @jparker at the Bronco Nation area. But I'll come out in mine and do trails here again. My Bronco is in the shop for some recalls -- I'm ready to get it back!

We had 18 Broncos in BN’s Mosquito Pass (+) trail run today. Climbing to almost 13,300ft in some rocky, twisty wheeling past numerous historic mine works - Great FUN!!

Also, we pumped some adrenaline letting our Broncos rip a trail section in faster, like 25mph Baja mode. Sure, 25 may not seem fast, but on these rocky high mtn trails our typical pace was 4..

We ended the day venturing up a more difficult/technical trail above the Continental Chief Mine. This trail section was described as a 6 of 10 difficulty level, and a great conclusion to this very successful day..

Another terrific Bronco Nation wheeling day lead by Bronco Off-Roadeo’s Jamie & Blake.

A few pics for ya!

Jeff & Donna jumped at #1 wheel up this difficult trail .

And Jamie provided excellent spotting getting us over this section.

Really enjoyed getting to know several Bronco Nation peeps at super Cel West - Want'a come back next year!

We're all excited to air down and hit the trail!!
IMG_2755.jpeg
This is the Baja run - GREAT FUN!!
IMG_2919.jpeg
Who says Mosquito Pass has scarry shelf roads. This looks more like a wide plateau trail - No worries!
IMG_2856.jpeg
Gotta pay close attention to our tire placement on these pocky/rocky trails. This is one of the wider switch-backs

Good morning Bronco Nation! Pancakes and bacon at the tent, and new Broncos brought in from the private collection Wayne Schmeeckle, Liberty Firearms Institute. We're lucky to get to host these at the Bronco Nation area!

Super Cel West was my 1st Bronco Nation event - Won't be last! Here're few more pics

Lucky, my drive the Buena Vista's only couple hours of very scenic drive on HW285.
IMG_2574.jpeg
Know I'm almost there when Mt Princeton appears in Bronco's windshield.
IMG_2578.jpeg
Everyone there's friendly, clearly happy to be there. These are some of the shiniest welcoming faces. From left of course Bronco Nation's ace enthusiast Cam & Laura and Bronco Off-Roadeo's pro wheeling guide Jamie. These folks, along with Blake, Jordan and several others make our visit super fun & entertaining.
IMG_2582.jpeg
Most of my SCW time was off-road, but there're tons of very trick Broncos, and upfitters, accessory vendors & other Bronco orgs there too. I wasn't able to stay for Saturdays full roadeo grounds' schedule, so only a few pics from Ford Performance tent.

Wednesday afternoon, Jamie lead our 1st trail - Black Dumps. Name's from area's historic coal mine bumps, typically for low BTU spec coal, but we saw no coal bumps. I'm assuming those coal piles are reclaimed long ago. Another theory was trail named for these critters poop piles..
IMG_2615.jpeg
Black Dump is an easy trail today, so we could more enjoy the scenery & peace of spending time in nature.
IMG_2600.jpegIMG_2601.jpegIMG_2602.jpegIMG_2610.jpeg
I see a bearded old-timer on top rightside of this rock. Wifey sees an elephant looking to the left - What do you see?
IMG_2620.jpeg
Did I mention trail was a little dusty today?
IMG_2589.jpeg
Black Dump's highly recommended for relaxing trail days - Thank you Jamie!!

Thursday, Blake lead our large 24 strong Bronco group on a more adventurous trail - Aspen Ridge. Before rolling out, Bronco Wild Fund reminded us the importance of responsible off-roading - Pack out your & other's trash, protect habitat & trials for future use, and 'Sons of Smokey App' to report large debris items for pick-up. Follow this QR to load app and you're all set!
IMG_2625.jpeg
Also, BWF treated us with re-usable trash bags (with Brongo Nation logo), disposable trash bags, gloves, hats, etc.

Arriving on dirty, we quickly climbed up this steep, muddy & rocky trail into a cloudy, misty morning's sky.
IMG_2631.jpegIMG_2638.jpegIMG_2646.jpegIMG_2648.jpegIMG_2649.jpegIMG_2654.jpegIMG_2658.jpeg
After a much needed potty break, we're off to find those Aspen trees. Did I mention this was a large group?
IMG_2660.jpeg
And after last night's heavy rain - Lots of mud too!
IMG_2682.jpegIMG_2683.jpegIMG_2684.jpegIMG_2685.jpegIMG_2686.jpeg
Including our smaller group's Bald Mtn Spur, On X says total trail time 8 hr 40 min, 37 miles, average speed 4.3 mph.
IMG_3008.jpeg
Aspen Ridge proved to be very entertaining, with some steeps and mud challenging Broncos sliding 'round. Several mentioned that today, this trail was more difficult than On-X's 4 of 10 rating.

Thank you Blake for another great trail adventure!!

Cheers

And there's more!! For extra fun adventure, after completing Aspen Ridge, Jamie led a smaller group up nearby Bald Mountain Spur trail.
IMG_2702.jpeg
IMG_2703.jpeg
Jeff has an amazing 'eagle-eye' for trail debris!!
IMG_2708.jpeg
Bald Mtn has a historic mable query that's now filled with dark, probably very deep water. No one volunteered to jump from its high dive platform. This trail was full of very sharp, pointy tire biters, so gotta focus on tire placement here.

We safely arrived at Bald's summit, treated to some blue sky and grand views!
IMG_2711.jpeg
IMG_2714.jpeg
This trail has several REALLY TIGHT switchbacks too. Thank you Ford, my Turn Assist worked very well for this 4-door Bronco - No 3-point turns today!

Thank you Jamie for taking us up Bald Mtn - Lotta fun for all!

Cheers

Hope everyone had safe returns. I met the usual lunatics on I-70 waiving thru traffic driving 90-100mph.

Off-roading in our Bronco’s much safer - Some had really bad day!

Thanks for the pics and write-ups Ken! One of the benefits of being in front of you is that we got to be in a lot of your pics!

Donna and I really enjoyed meeting you this week. Looking forward to trail riding with you again someday. We had a blast this week, and are anxious to do it again.

Hey Jeff - Donna & yourself are great fun! I didn't know cowboys were sooo funny! Heck, you 2 kept me out of trouble all week. Couldn't miss seeing your hot chilly pepper red Bronco giving us the correct line. Also, your Bronco really pops in photos.

Take care buddy - Looking forward to our next Bronco event.
