August 2014 I was approached by a group of Mountain bikers about putting a small support team together for a trip following the Kokopelli Trail which runs from Fruita Colorado to Moab Utah roughly following the Colorado River.
Four other vehicles and drivers came forward from the group and firm dates and plans were made.
In September I was doing some exploring in South Western Colorado and decided to make a side trip to drive the Kokopelli alone so I would have a better idea what the group was in for. There were definite sections I wouldn't want some of the more stock vehicles covering and I was glad I drove it first. I would hate to drag a stock 4x4 SUV down the Rose Garden.
My wife decided to come along as the sole female and the bonus of her attendance was her film editing ability as a gift to the bikers. Our source of footage was one Gopro camera, a HD movie camera and then various small movies and pictures from the bikers and vehicle drivers.
She even made a trailer as a teaser for the official showing of the complete movie:

If after viewing the teaser, you want to see the complete movie, here it is in 6 chapters. This movie was made for the bikers and therefore most of the footage is of them. This is the real thing with bumps, bruises and falls included.

The password is Kokopelli (case sensitive)
Thanks,
