This week we are heading deep into the Colorado Backcountry, specifically Colorado's White River National Forest, MORE SPECIFICALLY the Flat Top Wilderness.
We've never explored this area before and all we have to say is WOW. This is the Colorado we've been searching for. Sitting North of Glenwood Canyon, the contrast between the red rock and lush green forest trees is perfect for anyone looking to enjoy natures craziest feats.
This trip was only Natty, Jake and myself (Ron). We took this time away from everyday life to relax, fish, cook, enjoy a couple beers, and just to appreciate the beautiful place we decided to move to.

    Well you have another subscriber due to this video. Woke him up from a sound sleep when the sheep appeared and Nat started howling. He wouldn’t walk away from the TV until I hit subscribe. Good marketing on your part. Oh and I’m trying Sloppy Jake next time I’m out on the trail.

    Love the Flat Tops. I live pretty close to there, camped up a few times. It's beautiful. Busy, but fun to explore.

    I think that same flock came into our camp last summer. We were in camped on a different lake close to that area. They came in and settled down eating all the flowers. I had to put our 2 dogs in the camper.

    Love camping in the Flat Tops area, one of our favorite spots for fly fishing. I know that first campsite and wondered if it would be a good place to pop up a tent, seems like a winner for sure. Funny enough I just met those dogs, white horse and enough of those sheep this past Aug. Y'all really nailed it on that second campsite. You did this trail some justice for sure. Have to admit, every time I see an XJ off road I get sad about selling mine. Cool video for sure, keep them comin'!

    Hey Ron I have a cool idea for you. Try to use your drone to take your lure and line way out further than you can cast and rig up some sort of drop from the air feature. lol I have not idea how but that would be epic.

    Thank you! This jeep the worst on gas, usually 12mpg/250miles to a tank on shorter trips. We’ve seen 15mpg on some longer trips though.
