Played around North East of RMNP. Did Moody Hill, Green Pig Road, Buckhorn Pass and returned on Old Flowers road in under an hour.
Lost a lot of time trying to find alternative cross overs between Buckhorn Pass and Old Flowers Road, but...
Looks like I missed a few of you in the San Juans this weekend. I need to get the rest of the pics from my daughter but here is a pic from our campsite the first night.

Quick question, are you under 6 foot tall? They show a woman laying on their cot. Just thinking, generally women are shorter than men. I'm 6'-0", and having slept in the back of mine when my RTT was off, I had to scoot the passenger front seat up...
Nice clean job with all the wiring!
Guess you won't be using the Slee dual ARB compressor mount there!
Oh! And don't forget to grab your Leatherman and socket before closing the hood! 😁
