A real barnstormer of a day today. Most excellent in the Defender. Took my Blizzaks off last week but plenty of grip in the Wranglers nonetheless.
Spring Break Powder! Woohoo!

I do love that whole area, so many 14'ers to climb that are very approachable with an off road vehicle.

Ha! might be going there in summer too! by then my son will have two defenders, so we might make a trip to the san juan mountains, been there twice with the jeep, done most passes: Engineer, Cinnamon, corkscrew, imogene, ophir, black bear. I'd do them all with the Defender except black bear, actually I have no desire to ever drive black bear again, last summer jeep in front of me almost fell off the cliff (my jeep is the dark one to the left, look at the traffic coming down higher up). Luckily jeep had a winch so we tied it to a tree and using a ****** block we also used the winch from the white jeep, took us about an hour and half to recover. That spot was loose shale and it had been raining so the ground was pretty loose and the jeep kept sliding towards the abyss.

Oh man, that’s scary. I’m sure you saw the video of the Red jeep rolling off black bear last year? If not, it’s about the scariest thing I’ve ever seen.
