Colorado trip!!
What a beautiful part of the planet!! Moving to Silverthorne in June or July, to move into the rental prop I own there. Go every year 3 or 4 times a yr, now retired, I'm there til I die!!! Great pics and nice Jeep!!! Going out in my 2012 JK, no mods yet, but new tires b/4 I go. Thanks for the pics, they're inspiring!!!
I live by the words of Thomas Alva Edison: "If you never grow up, you never grow old"!!!

Thanks for the compliment on the jeep! I have had 2 solid chances to transfer in my job to the west of there. Have passed up both times. Even though I WANT to live there I don't have much family... So try to stay close to what I have. Folks, one brother here and one in Ca.
Guess it makes the trip up there more enjoyable. Have been going for years. This area is bar none the most beautiful place I've ever found. This June I will be doing a little camping trip up there for a few days and hope to see no one!
Pictures absolutely do NO justice to the beauty here!
2010 RUBICON. With some stuff

Just so you're aware, Black Bear is closed through mid July. Check www.bushducks.com for current trail conditions. Lots of the other trails in the area are open, however.
Here's the official San Miguel county road closure site, as well. Some useful info plus phone numbers. http://www.sanmiguelcounty.org/departments/roadbridge/index.html?tab=1#tabsDepts
Looks like Imogene is closed through mid July, as well.

Yea, you might get lucky. We've gone wheeling up there every 4th of July for the past 4 years. Last year was the first year Black Bear was open that early. Imogene Pass has been open every year but one, so it's a better bet. Have fun, maybe we'll run into you, we're doing the trip again this year.

My grandparents have had property just North of Ouray since the 70's so that's our home away from home. We've run just about everything in the area but Poughkeepsie. Hiking to the Summit of Sneffels on the 3rd if the snow is mostly clear. I keep entering in the Jeep giveaway but never get picked. Maybe again this year!
