4Went through the area late Feb, 2010 with a lifted Jeep Liberty and 31" class C's, cut a sidewall past Devils Chasm Creek. Very bad washouts between Dev. Chasm Creek and Cold Sping Canyon/Pueblo Canyon T.H. In late Dec '09 the trail was in good shape, exited FR203 up towards Young. All the rain in Jan. '10 has made the area impassible for anything less than 37" tires. Can always hike in from D.C. though.

We did Pueblo Canyon, January 2, 2010, I have a long bed GMC 3500 Crew Cab 4WD and made it past Devil's Chasm to Pueblo Creek T.H. w/no problem.
Curious, we're thinking about doing Coon Springs next weekend. Anyone know the flow of Cherry Creek @ Ellison Ranch crossing?
Also, curious about bad washouts and 37" tires...we may get to experience this next weekend. Maybe I'll bring the quads just in case.
