First trip to Ouray & Moab (2016)

FJ41 · Jul 17, 2016

Just got back from our Colorado Springs, Ouray, and Moab trip and I wish I could have stayed forever. I never could have imagined how awesome these places really are. Here's some pictures from the trip.

We stopped in Colorado Springs first and did the Manitou Incline which kicked our low altitude butts..

Next we took a trip up Pike's Peak.

We only stayed in Ouray 1.5 days and one of the people we met said that the downhill portion of Black Bear was closed so we chose to do the Alpine Loop with Cinnamon Pass and Engineer pass included.

Next, we finally made it to Moab. Again, we only had 1.5 days here as well so we tried to make the most of it. We did the Dellenbaugh Tunnel and Rainbow Terrace trails. Both are rated at "Moderate" and we chose these trails because we were lacking on time and we didn't know how our limited skill levels would match up with Moab.
