All done with Telluride, it was time to head back to Ouray through Ophir Pass. There was some traffic on the road, but a good drive. First, I just can never pass by the Post Office in Ouray without taking a pic. Ophir Pass (12,700 ft) Quick pic at Ophir Post Office 3 bikers passed me. I saw in...

We got to Telluride and went our separate ways since we each had different things to do. But we made plans to possibly meet each other again to do Ophir Pass on our way back to Ouray. In Telluride, I drove to Bridal Veil Falls. That place was PACKED. So many people. So many cars. A few of my...

The descend was pretty uneventful but worth sharing a few pics. A quick glance at Black Bear Pass switch backs. Social Tunnel. And that concludes the Imogene Pass for our own small "FJ Summit 2020".

Today was a great day of wheeling. I put my QX through its greatest challenges till date. We had the chance to wheel with a husband and wife FJCruiser. They were great company. We met at our rendezvous point at exactly 7am. Talked for a bit and it was time to tackle the 16 miles Imogene Pass...

Thanks about my trip report. As for the trails, it was not crowded though you see the town is packed full of offroad vehicles. If the FJs were here for their summit, the place would have double the cars currently in town eventhough the number of cars still look like a lot. Tomorrow, I plan to...

Random stops before calling it a day for today... Ouray: Switzerland of America A small waterfall: a walk from downtown Ouray Idarado Mine Some old houses by Idaroado Mine Ouray

Next trail to tackle was Black Bear Pass. I usually just drive up to the pass, turn around and come back the same way. I do not do the switchbacks. This ride was particularly very entertaining today as there was a large flock of sheep with just a sheep dog and one sheep with a bell. It was...

Trail time... Girst stop was Yankee Girl Mine. My first time here. It was really nice. Then a Porche and a BMW joined us. We spent a good time talking before we parted ways.

Took my time leaving Moab today for a nice and relaxing drive to Ouray. Had to stop for a last pic before leaving Moab. It was a nice and relaxing drive as I flew my drone a bit. When I was done flying, I landed my drone just where I met 3 FJCruisers in convoy for Ouray. Got to Ouray and it...

Today was another long day. Went to Canyonland National Park and Dead Horse State Park. Went offroading on Shaver switchbacks where I met a guy from Alaska in a Jeep. I asked him if I could please put my gopro on his Jeep so he can follow me and he was kind to say yes. For my trip down and back...

Today was Arches National Park. It was very packed for it being a Monday. The heat was really unbearable. It is so hot here in Utah.

Today was a long drive from Flagstaff to Moab. A 5 hours drive that took me 8 hours to complete because of multiple stops along the way. First stop was Sunset Crater Volcano. I got the chance to see the lava formations. Then met this couple who were very friendly and when we asked about their...

After offroading yesterday, it was time to stop for lunch. We were lucky to find a Mexican restaurant with dine in. So we sat and had a good lunch. Next we went shopping at Tlaquepaque. From there, we went driving around to look at some attractions before heading out of town. Chapel of the Holy...

Schnebly Hill Road at Exit number 320 on I from Flagstaff. We met soooooo many people and Jeeps on the Schnebly Hill Road. It was a fun drive in a very long convoy of almost 10 4x4s. And way too many side by sides. 5 miles into the trail, I noticed this family with what seems like a flat tire...

Yes, I saw recently that the Navajo Nation would be closed. What a bummer. But not bad as I plan to see things from the road side. This stretch of my trip is a 5 hours drive (Flagstaff to Moab), but I think it will take me about 7 to 8 hours to complete it because of the many stops I am planning...

Next stop was Roosevelt Lake Marina to look at the Roosevelt Lake Bridge, Theodore Roosevelt Dam and drive on the Apache Trail. Roosevelt Lake Bridge was nice site to look at. Theodore Roosevelt Dam was closed. One could only take pictures from afar. The Apache Trail was also closed because of...

We left White Sands National Park about 10am to start our 10 hours drive to Flagstaff, AZ. We stopped at Welcome to Arizona for some pictures and the heat from then on was unbearable as my car registered 120 degrees! The few places we stopped to look around and or take pictures was so hot we...

Went to the White Sands NP this morning and it was amazing as usual. But the heat us unbearable out there. Glad we went early though because they are closing the park at 11;30am this morning because the government is doing some missile testings today some time after noon. And they do not need...
