Reloader and Jeri, Jason and I are in Ouray this week for some fun and cooler temps. Today we traveled Last Dollar Road, an easy road, and Imogene Pass, a harder or at least more intimidating trail.

Last Dollar was Muddy from last night's rain. We found an abandoned Jetta that the owner gave up last night during the storm. There was also a Chevy pickup half off the trail with a tow truck en route.

After all of the recent suspension work, it drives like it's on rails

Figured the parking lot at the cabin was a good place for a five tire rotation

Alex, you look like your in pain in these pics - smile, you're on vacation - plus, you have those Craigslist people rotating your tires while you bark out orders and take pictures! :wink:

Apparently they take their mountains seriously here in CO. We took Stony Pass today East of Silverton and it dumped us near Creede. It was 35 miles and 5 hours back to Ouray on the trail, or 150 miles via highway. We took the highway.

Here are a couple of pics from today's exploring
