Poughkeepsie Gulch - Jeep Badge of Honor Trail

Poughkeepsie Gulch is the hardest of the Jeep Badge of Honor Trails in the San Juans. There is one obstacle and some surrounding playground area which is what pushes the difficulty up on this one. There is a bypass if you decide not to tackle "The Wall".

    For future reference it’s considered bad trail etiquette to “go around” an obstacle. The point is to conquer the obstacle, or take the bypass if one, or turn around.

    So glad I found your channel. Doing alpine loop this September and been searching tirelessly for full length videos detailing the main portions of trail. Thanks!

    Great video. The wife and I have been going to Ouray/Silverton area wheeling for the past 14 years each August with our RV/Jeep club. We were just there about a month ago for a week and got rain then snow on the last day when we ran Poughkeepsie. Dry the wall is pretty easy, wet it’s a little slick and requires a slightly different line. Glad you had a good time. Enjoying the video. Mike

    Thanks for the video! On the Wall bypass, is it pretty short? If some in the group didn't want to try the wall but wanted to watch is it a short distance to back track to get them back to their vehicle at the fork in the trail?

    We didn't do the bypass, so I am not entirely sure. You can read about it here: www.trailsoffroad.com/trails/426-poughkeepsie-gulch#waypoint-7

    I’m in the habit of stick checking water puddles. The offroad park by my house that used to have some huge holes. Look like a mud puddle and be 4ft deep. Others look like a huge hole and they’d be 6” deep. Just never know.

    Red Jeep stock or is he running 35's on a stock suspension? I've got a stock JLUR and I'm wondering if I could have done that wall obstacle. Also, you got the 2.0? That's exactly how my fan sounds when I'm pulling in my driveway. haha Also, also... what front and rear bumper do you have and rails? Love how that looks on "my" Jeep.

    The Red Jeep is on a 2.5" JKS lift with 35s. A stock JLUR can do the wall. I have the 3.6 in mine. The white JLUR and the red JLUR have the 2.0. On my blue Jeep, the front bumper is a Rugged Ridge and the rear is a DV8, they have both since been replaced with the Bestop Granite Series - kzread.info/dash/bejne/i6d9s8miYpu7odY.html & kzread.info/dash/bejne/eIeYxLGclrGooaQ.html
