So cool. Wonder what 4x4 trails are around my area
1k!?!? That’s cool and fun lol
The first two shots are Co Rd 361 out of Ouray. That road was blasted into the side of the a cliff by miners to get wagons in and out of the area. The last 2 photos are the approach to Governor’s Basin which is a spur off of 361. Governors basin tested out limits near the top but was gorgeous once we got up.
That’s my favorite spot! Love that area for camping and 4x4 trails. Governors Basin is so fun, has some beautiful views. Yankee boy is pretty great but haven’t timed it well enough to go to the top yet. Also this summer will finally do the full Imogene to Telluride from there. The truck is getting a locker and new shocks soon so it should be good to go.
We did Ophir pass to Telluride last summer in my bone stock Limited with tires aired down a bit. The shelf road on the Ophir side of the pass was rocky but doable for anyone here. I’m saving Imogene until my XREAS start to fade and I lift it.
