@Wylie E let us know when you would like to come back for the Black Bear. I will definitely take a weekend off and come back to finish up black bear. ? might even put two together and hit Medano Pass by sand dunes on the way out for some great overlanding.
Safe travels!
Thank you for everyone that came out. Specially thank you to @DocMike for putting this together! It was a blast to spend time with amazing people and enjoy what this country has to offer. Even rain didn’t spoil the fun. I am kind of glad we didn’t do engineer and black bear after seeing that...

If you are staying in Salida you are better off just going straight to the campsite on Tuesday. People that will be meeting in Buena Vista will be traveling through Salide to get to the campsite near Telluride. Another option is to get in touch with @DocMike and just coordinate when they will be...
Well, I am officially all set for this trip :rock: My MetalCloal rear sway bar braces showed up and I threw them on. After disassembling the rear sway bar links from brackets I realized how close I came to loosing my rear sway bar lol

That is a good cause. A lot of us locals buy those, even if we don't use the trails that require OHV permit the money still goes to maintaining the trails.
