I believe @REKCUT is doing the kokopelli trail instead of Rimrocker (which takes you into Montrose). He posted a thread with more details in the same section.

On a side note, success. Just need to mount the latches. Thanks again @dogfishlake

Nice rack.

Alright. DIY skottle is up and running. Truck gets attention starting tomorrow. View attachment 2034346

I wanna see this in person! Nice work!

Well, I've had to change my plans and the 40 won't be making it this year. I just couldn't get it dialed in before we leave next week and I was uncomfortable taking it without enough shake down miles. Fortunately I have 2 other Cruisers in the wings, so I'll be bringing the 80 this year and will properly sort out the 40 when we get back.

I'm actually surprised @HemiAlex didn't twist my arm more to bring the 60.

Doing either Kokopelli or Dolores triangle route into moab from grand junction (water level will determine route) and should be arriving into moab on Sundayish. Will take rim rocker from there into ouray. John is welcome to join if our dates match but we aren't planning on hitting Ouray till Wednesday. Not really on a schedule other than reservations at KOA start Wed.

Nobody but me is crazy enough to drive drive a 60 from Texas. I’m proud of that.

 

[Kleatus]

Ugh. That's where the metal on the magnet came from. Giddyup.

 

[BombCity]

hmmm. Meat.

I’m ready to get out of this Texas heat and into mountains! Glad we don’t have the humidity you guys do.

These two Texas 60's will be a day ahead of you Alex.

I HAD MY MOMENT IN THE SUN.

If I decide i want to be lazy and only sleep at the camp site and only pack a lunch for the day, are we pretty close to grocery stores and restaurants in Ouray?

 

[POTATO LAUNCHER]

Yessir, there is a small well stocked grocery store in Ouray. Happens to be right next to the liquor store. There a larger grocery store just up the road in Ridgeway.
As far as restaurants, Ouray is a tourist town so food from burgers and truffle fries to thick cut steaks and baked taters. There is an ACE Hardware on Main street that is well stocked with everything.

 

[POTATO LAUNCHER]

I do believe the KOA we are at has a restaurant as well. Breakfast is available and I think they have a BBQ Dinner a couple of evenings.

Spent the day with @gt7058a throw’n down some metal on some bumper kits. Thanks to @Kleatus for handling the Seattle Group buy and giving the design inspiration.

Needs more clean up and maybe some paint.

Excited to get to the road soon.

Looks like the force is getting strong padawan. That light saber gets longer and brighter with time.

 

[REKCUT]

Been following the HIH thread and with all of them packing up and hitting the trail its making this last bit a waiting extremely difficult.

 

[CenTXFJ60]

So is there anyone coming from the Phoenix area that had room for two front 60 seats and a winch? @Nifski was planning a mud ship for me but due to other commitments had to cancel this trip. If so and you’re able to carry this stuff to Ouray I’ll definaty help out with travel expenses etc.
thanks,
Jimmy

 

[NookShneer]

Anyone bringing a sled?

 

[John McVicker]

Impressive. Anyone know which trail this is?

It looks to be in the lower part of Corkscrew Pass to me. Where you drop back into the treeline before you get to Hwy 550.
