Harry Wagner and a crew from New Mexico and Colorado came into Robilio’s Off-Road Park for Memorial Day weekend. Harry was nice enough to write a few words describing their visit. You can also find some more information and pictures on the weekends events at the NMVJC Forum by clicking here.

Message from Harry

Colorado and New Mexico provide more four-wheeling opportunities than
most states, but after years of traversing the traditional trail
options my friends and I were looking for something new. We found
exactly what we were looking for in Raton, where the two states meet.
Richard Robilio has crafted a private off-road park with trails to
challenge everyone from the novice Jeeper to the most seasoned buggy
driver. At first I was concerned that a private, guided tour of
Robilio’s Off Road Park would not be in my budget, but Richard
provides an exceptional value and after a few phone calls our trip was
scheduled for Memorial Day weekend. Getting to Raton was an easy
drive from Denver, and the park actually sits right above the
interstate for incredibly easy access. The weather was perfect, with
warm, sunny days and cool nights, and the company was just as good.
Richard showed us a variety of hill climbs and rock strewn canyons and
let us choose the route that best fit our capabilities. In the
afternoon he even pulled out some go-karts to let the kids in the
group get in on the driving! With only two days to explore Robilio’s
Off Road Park we barely scratched the surface of what the area has to
offer, so a return trip is already in the planning stages.
