So here we are... finished another trip to the San Juan Mountains, met up with Jacksjeep, and had a great time running a few trails.

The weather sprinkled a bit but, for the most part, was gorgeous.

Jacksjeep showed up with a built JK Rubi on 35's
Image

Some gorgeous remote gulches
Image

Into the clouds we went up Hurricane Pass
Image

En route we passed a sheepdog who was making SURE we didn't mess with his sheep.
Image

Image

The view of Lake Como and Poughkeepsie from the top
Image

The Poughkeepsie Gulch trail marker
Image

More from Animas Forks Ghost Town
Image

Not a bad view...
Image

Then it was back to Silverton for some lounging by our campsite...
Image

I'll post up Day 2 after I grout some tile in the kitchen... stay tuned

#1 I didn't realize people still used sheep dogs for sheep anymore

#2 WTF did that trail marker used to be? Looks like someone got hurt.

Nice artsy pics

omGoddard: Nothing fancy, just good glass.

JL: The trail marker was a little S10 or Toyota from the looks... nobody survived that tumble

htkrph: forgot my filters that day, just some RAW processing

OK so here are the pics from day 2!!

Day 2 started with some breakfast in Silverton on a nice morning (that Jeeps' for sale BTW)
Image

Then Jacksjeep's arm ws twisted and it was off to Black Bear
Image

Loving the shelf roads
Image

Yes... the trail gets that steep and narrow
Image

Jacksjeep taking some steps
Image

Image

Relaxing at the end of the trail... before an awesome lunch in Telluride
Image

On the way home... a lone silver KK negotiates Ophir Pass
Image

We all had an awesome time! Thanks for coming out Jack and enjoy the rest of your trip!

No doubt these are awesome shots but some of these wouldn't be possible not using HDR or some heavy image manipulation. Plus you can still see the artifacts in some of them. :wink:

Great shots though bud!

I never said anything about "heavy image manipulation" :wink:

They just aren't HDR shots.
