Yeah, no shit!

 

Oh yeah he does, “I’m a real overlander now” photo.

 

They lose points for not having LED bed lights but rather a lantern hanging from the bed rack. And also by not having a CNC cut 1/4" plate sign that says "Do Not Climb On"

 

That sweet camper is missing a vegvísir though. -1 points for Viking Brett.

 

You need to attach photos of what the hell your referring to!

 

Both are cool places, I'll be up in Cheyenne Wed and Thursday. Haven't thought about where I'll camp yet.

 

I am really missing the ability to find remote spots. Dang Bigfoot

 

Would I take from Lake City over to Engineer pass. Road 20?

 

You're going to get good use out of that picture, aren't you Ray?

I had to look that up too. Do I need to get the sticker, and a tattoo now?

 

Dude I wish someone would put it in the banner!!! Love ya!

 

The real question is why don't you have any gigantic graphics on that thing yet? -thousands of expo points! You are a overlander now. Time to represent a cause even if it's a stupid one!

 

Back in my 1997 4runner (2.7 manual), and busted the radiator on a rock. I could get an auto radiator almost anywhere, so thats what i got. i used the stock trans cooler in my new radiator as a power steering cooler. I had an aussie locker in the front, and the pump was happier with the cooler.

 

I was hoping for this picture again.

I actually did order one sticker I'll be putting on it....

 

I have to agree. That’s the best picture I’ve ever taken.

 

No! Opposite way around. Less people on the trails!

 

Yes, it's County Road 20. Things are really kind of self-explanatory once you get up there for the most part - though Google maps can be a little misleading in their road labels. If you did go Engineer, you'd want to make sure not to descend Mineral Creek but instead head toward Animas Forks/Cinnamon Pass in order to get down to 550 at Silverton (from the junction above Animas Forks it's only a few minutes to Cinnamon Pass proper if you take the uphill left if you want to hit both). Mineral Creek is rougher and puts you down on 550 much closer to Ouray - and significantly farther north than Ophir comes out, so you'd miss a big chunk of 550 if you didn't drive it twice (or more). The area and trails between Ouray/Silverton/Lake City is referred to as the Alpine Loop: https://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5286478.pdf

 

Asking for a friend, Leaf spring below is still good right?

 

Looks good to me. Send it!

 

One guy doing all the work while a bunch of weenie's stand around posing for the snapbookfacegram?

 

Thank you for the map and all the great info! I'm not worried about hitting both cinnamon and engineer as much as which would get me there quicker to check out Imogene before heading down to Silverton! Thanks for the link, that will be very helpful! Camping anywhere on there perfectly fine or stick to campgrounds noted?
