Adventures of C&J

Howdy. I'm Chuck and my wife is Jen and this is our channel.
I'm still kinda new to sharing videos like this so please bear with me.
In our videos you will be joining us on some of our fun adventures. Some off roading, traveling and maybe some hiking or geocaching. We recently purchased a pop up so we will have some cool camping trips to share.
I purchased a drone a while back so hopefully that can add some cool footage to our videos.
I drive a semi hauling construction equipment so I may have some of that, or some trips on the motorcycle. Heck, I may even throw in some grilling videos or some footage of me working on my vehicles. Basically a little of whatever I decide to film or is worth sharing. Thanks a lot for checking out our channel, I hope you enjoy some of what we share.

    Nice video! I'll never drive or trailer my 91 YJ the 496 miles to that area to try it out. I rent a jeep when I'm in that area (doing Engineer, Imogene, Ophir, etc.). As a result, I'll never be able to do Back Bear (rental companies don't allow it). I've always wanted to give it a go, but will have to settle for good videos like yours. Thanks!

    2x4 plywood cut in half for the base and the back board. I used a long piece and short piece of black pipe with elbows and flanges and a coupler to connect the 2 straight pieces. It's actually the proper regulation height. I also cut foam insulation for the backing to catch the darts if we miss the dart board Thanks for watching. Any questions, let me know.

    Was this from the Ouray side? Is it relatively easy up to this point- is it scenic? I want to try but don't want switchbacks or stairs, etc.

  • @chkwgn460
    @chkwgn4608 ай бұрын

    Yes from Ouray side. It's not bad for the most part till you start down to Telluride. There is a certain point where it becomes one way so you have to start from Hwy 550. It is scenic but the better parts are looking over Telluride. I would do Ophir Pass and see how you like that, it's beautiful scenery. Also Last Dollar Highway. Very scenic but not real difficult.
