This is how easy Poughkeepsie is with lockers. Here are a Rubicon & a TJ with ARB lockers going up and in the group I fell in with.

Does anyone know if there's been trail maintenance done on the wall? I haven't run Poughkeepsie in a few years but it looks a bit different to me than I recall, especially the bottom part. Looks less challenging than I remember for sure. When were these videos taken?
They are going up the easy right side. The left is more difficult for sure. The right Looks the same as the last few years to me.
It's doable in your jeep.
Here I am doing it last summer. Was a little wet but still made it

Here is a friend of mine doing it. A little tougher but got the job done

It's a great trail.
No way I could have gone up the left side. The guy in the TJ has done it, according to the group I was with.
Great pics! Looks like you hit ALL the best trails and Carson, one of the best ghost towns in the state. Well played.:thumb::thumb: Going again next month. It's like catnip.
If you have time the next time you visit check out the Alferd Packer massacre site just south of Lake City. It's a Colorado legend.

I'm headed back out, this week, but no jeeping in the high altitude country. My Dad & Mom are with us and he has heart and lung problems, so we'll stay down a little lower and sight see. He's been telling people he was going to go out west, for 35 years. The last 5 years or so, he's told people, "I've always wanted to go out west, but I'll never go," so we are taking him. He's 76 and can't handle that much driving, & won't fly.
