While I am still trying to make sure I can get the time off to make this trip, this is my tentative plan of the trails I plan to run with my 2025 Rav4 XSE Prime. I plan to take pictures at the top of all of the named passes. In preparation for this trip, I have already booked my hotel which...

I have always wanted to visit Ouray during the fall to see fall colors. Then I stumbled on a post that says there will be a Jeep Jamboree in Ouray at the end of September when Fall colors will be blooming. I would like to attend this Jeep Jamboree and see Fall colors in Ouray. I am motivated to...

Looking good. Waiting for more pictures and story to read.

Ok. We can delete the thread. No problem at all. I will keep it in my glove compartment for the next 10 months. Maybe I will end up using it. If not, it can just stay in my glove compartment until it expires.

Let me show you directly from their website. You can buy this pass as a gift for someone else. So if you buy it to give it as a gift to give someone, the park does not ask for your DL to attach it to the Park Pass. That is not how it works. I know things change as years have gone by. For...

You can buy it without signing for it immediately. Some people buy it in person. Some people order it online from the National Park. When you order it online, it gets delivered to you unsigned. I promise, if you order it directly from their website, you will see. They will ship the card to...

I bought this to use on my recent road trip. I ended up visiting only one National Park which is the only NP with no entrance fee: The Great Smoky Mountains National Park. This National Park Pass gives you free access to all National Parks in the US. It is a great value and pays for it self...

Unfortunately, I have already been to Ouray and left. I spent 3 days in Ouray hitting the trails. I am now back in Texas. I wish you had contacted me when I was still there. I would have gladly met you. If you do not mind paying for shipping, I would gladly ship them to you. Please let me know.

Thanks a lot for the purchase. And thanks especially for being flexible and making it possible for us to meet at an earlier time to give me time to gain grounds on my way home. I appreciate that a lot.

I went up Ophir Pass. The Jeeps I met up there were quite surprised that my Rav4 made it. Bit Ophir Pass is really not that bad.

Today I went to Telluride to go up Imogene Pass. Too bad it was closed. What a disappointment. I was so ready to go up the pass. So I went up the Black Bear Pass switcbacks to Bridal Veil. I was very surprised to see 2 girls took this Ford up the Black Bear Pass switchbacks to Bridal Veil...

Yesterday when I was at this spot taking pictures I saw a family setting up the stage for someone to propose. I saw the family start pointing at my drone. As I was aboit to leave, a guy approached me and said they are setting up the stage for his brother to arrive with his girlfriend and propose...

Driving down Black Bear Pass. Not the switchbacks. I went up Black Bear Pass and returned the same way. I did not go to the switchbacks to Telluride. This video is straight from my drone. No sound.

This is the video of me going up Black Bear Pass in my Rav4. Ed was the guy with the Jeep behind me who honked at me to stop so he can make sure I am ok driving up in my Rav4. After I assured him that I have done this before but in a more capable vehicle and that I know this one would make it...

Much respect to my Rav4. I took it up Black Bear Pass and it handled it very well. I got to the trail all alone. I was a bit slow because my Rav4 has all season tires amd mot offroad tires. So I had to be extra careful with those sharp rocks. In 3 minutes, a Jeep was already behind me. After...
