You should be pretty good then snow wise. Maybe only Black Bear and Imogene closed at that point. You might run into the FJ Summit which will crowed the town and tails a lot.
Thanks. Not sure how well it will work with the flat platform I built for my Jeep's cargo area. I'll have to measure some things at home to see if it would work with how I currently haul stuff.
A good day trip would be Switzerland Trail west of Boulder. For anyone looking for trails in CO, I'd highly recommend joining the Trail Damage site. It's $12 a year to access all the trail details. They currently have 419 trails documented in CO and another 175 in UT. They each include trip...
I'd love to do the Rubicon Trail, but this year is not an option.
As far as the passes in the Ouray area being open in mid June, it is going to depend on which trails you want to run. Most of the good ones don't open until late June to mid July. Check out the Switzerland of America Jeep Tours...
So are you wanting day trips or multiday trips? Also, what level of road/trails are you looking to do? Also, what is your comfort level in driving offroad in snow? Most of the mountain roads will probably still have some snow on them in early May and the high pass will still be closed for the...
I picked up an older inReach device from a buddy in a trade from some laser work last year and needed a way to mount it in the Jeep. I already had a Vector Offroad J Dock and some Ram Mounts, but I was not able to find one of the inReach specific Ram mounts in stock anywhere (the stopped making...
If you know what direction the wind will be coming from, park so that the vehicle mounted side is in the wind. When I can't do that, I tie the tent down to my rock sliders. You could also park on some guy lines and then attach them to the tent once it is deployed (can be done the other way...
Here is a look at how I loaded the back of the Jeep for the Death Valley trip.
We accessed the fridge from the passenger's side rear door the entire trip. It was not too bad, but I would have preferred it closer to the cook stove. How ever, with the trailer setup we had, I don't think it...
Since I was originally doing the plates for trail runs, there were no defined boundaries for the trips and no GPS tacks for the most part. I was also doing 20+ trails a year, so the small, uniformed shape of the plates were nice (I could also cut out a lot from a single sheet of wood since I...
I managed to get all of my Overland Badges made up for this trip...
I also played around with a new idea to commemorate our trips...
That last one is a little bit more involved. I had to create the outline of Death Valley and then superimpose our GPS track over it. I then added stars to...
