I just got back from an almost 3 wk. camping road trip. We stayed 5 days camping in Silverton, CO. One day we went to Ouray and then took the Alpine loop up to Engineer Pass and then came back down to Silverton. I could have wheeled everyday up there, but my wife would have killed me. Anyways here are some pics:

 

 

Here is the link to more pics of that day:

I can't wait to go back next year. I'll post pics from the whole trip in a different thread. Enjoy,
Chris

 

I am sooooooo jealous -- there are no places in the East to do trips like that. Great pics, thanks for sharing.

BTW, your signature says 33x12.50s on painted rims, but those are the stock rims. Are those 31 or 32 inch tires?

 

thanks, I am definately bummed to be home, that place is too awesome!

As for the tires, I have a set of 33's that I wheel with till I can regear. I didn't want to do a 5,000 mile plus roadtrip on those, because of gas etc... The tires I have on for the trip and daily use are 31's, but they only measure 30 inches. My avatar has pics of the 33's on.

that place looks s-a-weet

 

It is.

 

It is an awesome place! I am going to try to make it there at least once a year. Has there ever been a Yotatech event there? I think it would be a great place to have one. Lots of hotels, camping, etc....

 

Not that specific area, but all of the CO4RJ's have/will go to nearly identical areas. Got one coming up in Sept.....

 

I just saw that, I might have to start buttering up the wife now!
Here is a pic of my campsite:

 

man that is awesome. Like 4mydogs said we have nothing like that here on the right coast.

 

Great pics! That makes me really homesick, I grew up in Durango and still make it up there whenever I can. Beautiful!

Thanks, My wife is a photographer, so most of the props go to her for the pics. I just try to figure out cool places to take her so that I can wheel and make it seem like I am doing it for her. Although, she doesn't like to get out and take action pictures that much, something about why walk up the dusty rock when I can just ride with you. So, sorry, no action shots. The start of the trail, from Ouray actually has some interesting spots, especially if you try to take the hard line.

 

Slosurfer...
I did that same run Memorial day weekend and it was snowing like all hell....

 

Mayhem, nice pics! I can't wait to get back there and explore some of the other runs.
