Thank you for all of your hard work of filming, running back and forth with the camera, editing, and all of the work behind the scenes. It allows bedridden terminally ill people like me a chance to “go off Roading”. Thank you
Altitude is an ass kicker. I felt that hike. 😂
Another great video! Thanks for putting together this series of your trip!
Thanks for the awesome video. We love Ouray and are headed back this August.
Nice video, great serie. Thanks for sharing.
Great Videos! Thank You!
I really enjoyed this series!
Loved the series, thank you for sharing your adventure.

Mason Murr thank you!!!
I did porphyry gulch right when it opened and I barely made it to well before you have to leave the vehicle. It was so slick that I had to tuck my tail between my legs and turn around. A month later I was showing porphyry gulch to someone and completely forgot about the lake and the hike but trail was good. As I am watching your video I am kicking myself for forgetting. Would have been a cool hike. Grr. Maybe next time.
Great video. I enjoyed all the videos from this trip; it looked like a blast.

JG Taylor thanks for that!! It was awesome and I can’t wait to go back again!!
Was awesome to see your group playing in my back yard, have to admit that all the years I've lived here I have never been up above Ouray .... now I'll have to. If you get back up this way you might check out Stoney Pass. Thanks for you great videos. I'm looking to move Missouri Ozarks area, looking forward to riding trails down there.
Great series of videos guys

I enjoyed this series! We just got home (Chattanooga) from Colorado 2 days ago. We did Yankee Boy basin and Imogene pass, I have a full size so I'm glad I didn't try Black Bear. After watching your videos, I don't think those switch backs would've been fun. You've given me a few more ideas of places I'd like to check out next time! Great job!

Thanks for that. This was our 4th year in a row to go and we haven't come close to scratching the surface on all the trails out there. So we will just keep going back. lol
That trail in the first portion of the video was gorgeous and more my speed. Your drone footage is beautiful and hope to get there one day to visit.

I did Bullion King Lake just yesterday. The hike was longer than the map led on to believe and like you said, it wouldn't be so bad if you could only breathe at those altitudes!

What has been your favorite trail near Ouray? We are going in a month. Thinking of doing Yankee boy and then Imogene part way then back to Ouray. Or woud you recommend the trails east of million dollar highway? Mainly looking for views/waterfalls, not worried about wheeling hard since its first trip to CO
Great video series! Was this trip during July or August?

End of July. If you go any earlier you risk trails not being open yet. Even this year Pearl Pass and Black Bear opened right before we got there. Thanks!!
Colorado > Moab. Nathan is right lol!

Question is how is the traveling with the teardrop trailer. Does it limit your areas with overlanding exploring?
@OzarkOverlandAdventures
3 жыл бұрын
Out west I wouldn’t say it limits me at all. Now obviously I’m not going to take it over Black Bear Pass or attempt the wall on Poughkeepsie with it but that’s why we set up a base camp in areas like that to explore without the camper. Now in the Ozarks where I’m from, I won’t pull the camper. The trails are just too tight. In the Ozarks I’ll only do a base camp and explore without it.
Was there a book you were using to find these spots? I've never been and want to go in just over a week. Im from Joplin Missouri

You went into Ourary and took a shower. Did you get a hotel room for a couple hours or is there public showers? How does that work?

I enjoyed watching your videos. Pardon my ignorance, but where do you leave your trailer while out on the trails? It appears it is with you sometimes, then others not.
