Whole-heartedly support double-checking for private ownership in places, however, I think you're mistaken here. Both GAIA and OnX show the route as a right-of-way through land owned by Scenic Vistas, LLC. Signs at either end indicate that high-clearance vehicles be used...that's it. The only...
You're not wrong. We go evvvvvvvvvvvvverywhere with our 11.5-yo Malinois, and 4.5-yo Dutch Shepherd. And, for the next 8-10 years, likely won't be traveling outside of North America...limited to driving. Our Dutchy (the all-to-aptly named Havoc) had a troubled youth that produced a neurotic...
I'd pretty much bet the farm that that mess was from a bunch of JMU kids. We'd regularly find the large sites trashed with JMU sweatshirts/t-shirts/chairs being left behind. Lazy ass kids that just go out, trash the woods for a night, then stumble back to their vehicles in the AM. Sadly the...
We were all geared up for MAOF...then had to move our big trip back two months due to both the inSANE snowpack out west, and then my wife's job. So we won't make it this year, unfortunately. We're heading out for 4 whole weeks to combine both the Continental Divide Trail an WYBDR with some...
Hey, Bill!
We actually pushed our big trip out from CO to Canada until mid-August because of snow reports and the like. Our first stop in the Flat Tops just north of Glenwood Springs JUST opened up so far as I can tell. Problem is...while it may be wonderful the first two nights in CO, it's...
For sure. We'll be in the camper. Granted the fridge is in there, but between hard walls (at least up to about 8'-6" off the ground), two dogs, etc. I'm not worried. Aware and prepared with non and not-so-non lethal deterrants? Yes. Worried? No. We're extremely scent aware any time we're...
Sounds like an awesome trip! I'll check out the blog, unfinished though it may be :laughing:.
We're running north. Here's a great thread with route files: https://www.overlandbound.com/forums/threads/continental-divide.40767/
Taking I-70 (shoot me) to Denver, then heading to our first...

Should’ve started this thread months ago, but…such is life. Any local knowledge on additional routes, POIs, and some of the concerns outlined below would be most welcome!

I, my wife, and our two fur missiles will be departing Virginia on 14 June for 4 solid weeks of exploring the northern half...
It's late notice, I know, but I've been surprised by the number of folks that weren't aware of this. If you have time this Saturday, more volunteers are still needed. You can RSVP here.
Provided I can get a coolant leak fixed, come say "Hey!" I'll be the guy in the Rhino-Lined 1st gen Sequoia.
I run Airlift 1000 bags in the coils of my '05 Sequoia and Airlift's LoadLifter 5000 Ultimates with Daystar cradles on my '21 Power Wagon. Both are hooked up to Airlift's remote compressor for on-the-fly adjustment from the cabin. I, absolutely, love both systems. The LoadLifter Ultimates...
SOLD!!!
Bought it used about a year ago knowing it would only be temporary. My camper build is finally coming to fruition, so it's time for it to go to a new home! Includes multiple drawer dividers (I have at least two more than pictured), two large cases, one small, and the drawer cubby...
Probably shooting for hitting the Denver area the evening of Fri 7/15 straight to a hotel near our friends' place. Fully intend to spend the whole day exploring, and hope to end up either in Leadville, or right along I-70 for an expeditious superslab trip to the hotel for a late evening...
I've read a few accounts on folks doing the COBDR, or just the area in general in full-sizes. Can it be done? Sure thing. But almost all of them had a statement along the lines of they wouldn't, readily, do it again. HA! With the number of switchbacks, and some narrow areas, I'll, happily...
Ha! I'm glad you reminded me that I actually have had the paid subscription to that app for a couple years now :tearsofjoy: It's all but useless out here, but I'll be sure to peruse it for our forays west!
