tall tales and lots of lies...Great Group...We're working on posting more pic's, and those really tell the story. We hit every weather condition and the biggest problem with snow we had was on pavement! Seems when you get about 6 inches of snow, tractors trailers go sideways downhill and morons have to learn that gravity's a bitch. Some even go sideways uphill... Mosquito was a fun because of 3 to 5 inches of wet sleet, made the backside fun...The most beautiful pass was Pearl Pass, we had perfect weather and it was a great trail...Tin Cup was rain and snow. Gotta check my journal for more info... The only 2 passes we didn't do we're Engineers and Imogene, both way to dangerous because of drifting snow, like 2 feet... My total round trip was 4980 miles. of that, about 800 off-road...Great bar in Telluride, can't remember the name, but I think I drank about 100 beers (thanks Rich)... Frank |

Mongo - From what I remember it was only about 80 beers (and 30 tequila LOL). Awesome trip and great group. Can't wait for next year. Check out the site for more details and pics to come. Jay ROXS 47 |
