Is this the place for VirtuALL pics?
Kingston Peak was fun, but very dry and dead. I went late July a few years back and it was green and lush. I guess the window for beauty up there is pretty narrow.

There’s a 30-Foot Delivery Truck Blocking a 4WD Trail High in the Rocky Mountains
How did he even get that far in the first place?

Yes. The delivery truck was on engineer. If you approach from the lake city side that is an incredibly well maintained trail than any vehicle can do (I've seen Subaru's get up Engineer with no problem from lake city) that turns into an unimproved road once you cross the top of the pass, but it is still an incredibly easy trail. It is very highly trafficked and quite wide, plenty big for a delivery truck to get up. Once you start coming down the switchbacks on the other side you really wouldn't have an opportunity for something that large to turn around until the fork for Animas. He likely just kept going and took his chances. No word on why his GPS took him that way or why no one stopped him to ask him what he was doing.
The Jeep situation is really unfortunate all around. Young guy got out to help spot someone and his parking brake didn't hold. The young lady in the vehicle was ejected and severely injured - she has a long road to recovery. I hope he is doing okay too, its a burden. They are from Durango and I am sure know the area and wheeling. Both their dog and puppy were also ejected, but the dog is ok and the puppy it sounds was found alive a few days later.
If you are able, they've created a fund for the young lady who was ejected from the vehicle. Helping Suzie Heal, organized by Zoe Faller

So many late season fires this year. Hopefully this one gets under control ASAP.

The photos below were from my drive back from Moab last weekend. They were take on 70 headed east a few miles before the turnoff for US 6. I am 99% sure that this is the Jeep that rolled. All parts and decals on the truck match up with the one in the video. Crazy to think how much worse it would have been if the black Jeep was 20 feet further up the road when the red Jeep came down....

Events/Trails - 10th Annual 100s in the Hills! *Silverton, Colorado July 22 - 27 2020*
**HIHX UPDATE** So we’re in a pretty tough spot here. Colorado’s latest public health order still has a maximum gathering restriction of 10 people and we have 388 people registered. We’ve weighed a ton of options and came to the realization that a traditional 100s in the Hills simply couldn’t...

I'd guess being ejected saves her life... That's one mangled Jeep!
Looks like a permit system is coming for hiking to Ice Lakes and it may include driving up to Clear Lake.

Permit system on the way to control crowds on Ice Lakes Trail
It appears the time has finally come to put in place a permit system to visit the popular Ice Lakes Trail outside Silverton.

I applaud that move- hopefully it comes issued with some educational material instructing people how to bag up their poop and toilet paper and other garbage. I was shocked at the amount of human
