Man, a Ouray trip has been on the bucket list for almost 20 years. Ever since I seen a magazine tidbit about Black Bear Pass with a pic taken from the switchbacks overlooking Telluride......Yeller wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 6:05 pm I get the bruised ego
I got denied there and then 150 feet later I messed up and got to do it again. it is the only time I’ve pulled it and I’ve done what most consider to be quite difficult trails like hells revenge and poison spider mesa in Moab. The pic spot was on Poughkeepsie Pass in Ouray CO.
Someday...
I always envisioned the Wag going over it, but now that I have a YJ, a more realistic option would be to flat tow that behind a small RV or Skoolie and make the trek over some of the less challenging/more scenic trails that way.
For now, we have the Wag and the Gazelle Tent setup for trips.
The Oklahoma trip was a rare, long haul, but definitely put us in the realistic mindset of needing something we could cruise that was bigger and more powerful for treks like that. Gives us something to work towards within the next 10 years.
Just gotta remember to enjoy the journey in the meantime.
