But what they lack in mountains and trees they make up with lizards and snakes .

Spent a few days in San Juan Co. It took a couple of years, several trips, but I think we've now pretty much covered the entire HITR Pioneer trail...

10-year-old at the wheel, the scariest part of the entire trip:

The "Road" to San Juan Hill. I've never had to run lockers for so long in one stretch. And new found love for Warn...

You guys see that kind of hook looking thing with the cable and stuff on the front bumper?


I hate the stuff, but turns out you actually can do something useful with Tamarisk.

Roughest camping spot we have ever been, at 15,000 feet at a living vulcano in Equador, at freezing temperatures and hard winds. That morning we started at almost sea level, so next morning we had to go down quickly because of height sickness
