Larimer County 4 Wheel Drive Club - The Mountaineers

We are a family oriented club, organized in 1965, to promote and enjoy the recreation of four wheeling. Four wheeling involves driving a four wheel drive vehicle on roads and trails which are impassable to normal street vehicles. It’s often referred to as ” off-roading” but in most cases we use marked “roads” in order to protect the areas through which we travel. occasionally we play “off-road” on designated sand dunes or ice where it is a bit tough to “stay on the trail” since there is none.

Unlike the images portrayed by mass media and environmental groups, we are concerned with conserving the natural beauty of the State of Colorado and anywhere we four wheel. We believe strongly in the principles of Tread Lightly! We also participate in both the Adopt-a-Trail and the Adopt-A-Highway programs.

We work closely with the US Forest Service in maintaining our adopted roads. We assist our community, Fort Collins, Colorado, by providing transportation during severe winter weather for employees and some patients of “critical need” groups like Poudre Valley Hospital, MCR, Good Samaritan Retirement Village and Meals-On-Wheels and by assisting groups like the American Red Cross and the Salvation Army in transporting supplies and the like to and from remote areas during crises.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit registered with the state and federal government.
