Re: post up your camping pics

That looks good with the topper on it. I just sold mine. The wife said she was done lifting it on and off the truck in the fall and spring.

Camper is a 9.5’ Hallmark Cuchara. It has the bathroom, black and grey tanks. We love it.

Re: post up your camping pics

We haven't gone camping or even wheeling for while. I've got one picture of a trip to Mount Shavana above Salida. We used to go over Medano pass into the sand dunes and tent camp part way down the dunes side. But no pictures

Re: post up your camping pics

I found one more picture from Mount Shavana trip but I'm not sure anyone on this sight would want to see it. (my wife's DD and it has A/C)(oh yeah! and we inherited it)

Hey Bronco's are pretty cool. I've even been upside down in a 70 Bronco one time. Not the most fun thing to do and might have been less painful with the seat belts bolted in and used, but I was a dumb kid in my buddy's ride.

Medano Pass is a nice easy run, but very pretty at the same time. I've camped just down from the summit on the dunes side at the edge of the creek. I want to take a weekend and do just that, camp above the dunes (usually free of the touristas staying in the dunes campgrounds), wheel out of the park (hint hint, you don't have to pay the national park entry fee if you come in off of the pass) and then drive up to Villa Grove on 285, turn and go east over Hayden pass. Camp on the pass somewhere and then drive down back to hwy 50 and back home. Again, it's not a crazy rock crawling trail, but just rough enough to keep the Subaru's and other Crossover's off of it.

You need to get that K5 out on some dirt. Once you gain some elevation you really don't need air conditioning anyway.

Well Rob I took the Wife Today to look at the fall colors and convinced her to take the K5 ,We stopped for lunch on the tailgate and took a short drive off the pavement 2 times, YES twice We had a good day . A fast 4 hours, nothing overnight.

Sweet. Looks better on the trail too!

I went up with friends a couple of weekends back for an overnighter to Pomeroy lake and Hancock pass again. Colors were in full swing.

Re: post up your camping pics

Sweet OJ ride!

Looks like a few good options on the campers, Dawg.

Here’s a top down pic in its natural state. Last trip I got almost 10 mpg but not today. Too much skinny pedal...

Re: post up your camping pics

Went up for the weekend to screw around in the mountains a couple of days back. Camper got a good workout with the wife and one of my dogs coming along for the first time.

At the top of the trail for Pomeroy lake. We were at 11,500 ft here.
IMGP0007 by Rob Zulian, on Flickr
IMGP0017 by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

IMGP0018 by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

Lots of old mine relics in this part of Colorado. This is part of the Mary Murphy Mine.
IMGP0022 by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

IMGP0034 by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

Hankock pass.
IMGP0001 (2) by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

30,000 Gallon water tank for the old steam engine that rain up to the Apline Tunnel. The trail my truck is on was the old road bed for the rail line.
IMGP0014 (2) by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

Then the funny part. This is a fairly new Mazda CX-5 cross-over. Look closely and you'll see 3 flat tires in the pic. Actually all were flat, the bonus is the right front had come completely off the bead. This was 200ft from the summit of Tincup Pass. It's pretty tame for my K5 as trails go and your average stock 4wd truck can go over with no lift and a decent set of tires. But the size of the rocks kinda preclude taking a "Soft-Roader" over it with 40-series low profile tires and zero ground clearance. The poor car got beat to death. Rockers are missing trim and beat in by the rocks, even the doors got hit hard at the bottom.

IMGP0022 (2) by Rob Zulian, on Flickr

Minimum wrecker fee from a Tow operator in nearby Buena Vista Colorado was $250 per hour from when they leave the shop to where they drop it. Just getting to the top from the south trailhead would be 2.5 hours easy. We all laughed hard over this dummy.

Re: post up your camping pics

vacationing in 2018 ha not been very memorable so far....
the guy with the Lance camper 'gave' it to his BIL....why did he even bother to advertise it...and with our camper down, we decided to head for the BC/Alberta border with the wife's truck. there is a cluster of 4 national parks there, kinda like Yellowstone, a national park.
It's a round trip of approx 1900 kms (around 1200 miles). like Yellowstone, these parks are the jewels of our country, Yoho, Kootenay, Banff, and Jasper.
I have been there three times, twice as a kid and with my wife back in 2002.
Has got a lot more touristy, and waaaay more expensive....
we have around 600 forest fires going right now, so about 80% of our province is covered in heavy smoke, as well as we also got smoke from the Calf. fires drifting up, and a bunch of smoke floating over from some big fires in Siberia.

Re: post up your camping pics

Looked like an adventure for sure. Bummer on the smoke though. We are getting haze/smoke from California here in Colorado too. Thankfully we got a lot of needed moisture and most of our fires are out now.

Hey Diesel,
Great pic's as usual. That's ALOT of fires you got going on over there! Almost unimaginable, sittin' down here. I was just reading Kimberly is on Evacuation Alert, 4500 people. Telegraph Creek having a tough run too. Stay safe!

actually about 3000 people evac'ed across the province right now Billhilly, and another 19000 on evac alert. we're actually down to 564 fires as of today. there has been more fires this year than last yr, but the fires last yr were waaaaay bigger.
lesser amount of fires last yr, but almost 3 million acres went up, almost twice as many fires this yr, but only around a million acres burnt so far
smoke has been the biggie this year, just blanketing everything...air quality index goes from 1-10, ten being bad...it's at anywhere from 20-40 depending on where you are....
http://google.org/crisismap/google.c...mbia-wildfires

but it's not just here only...i think people need to realize global warming is'nt fiction. we never had this many fires ever when we were growing up. we used to get maybe 6-10 days of mid 80's weather in the summer (30C) now we are getting around 30 plus days of mid 80's weather, which is drying things out much more and making the forests ticking time bombs....
Calf, Wash, Ore, Greece, Siberia, Europe, BC, all on fire, our planet seems to be getting hotter, which sucks, cause there is no planet "B" if we cook this one...

Re: post up your camping pics

Larry, Ian, my son and I with our friends Pam and John went into the mountains this last weekend and did some wheeling. Hit the Wheeler Lake trail and Mosquito Pass.

Wheeler lake is listed locally as a difficult trail, but we went for it anyway.

Airing down for the ride..

This trail is in a historical mining area. The beginning passes under the building for the Magnolia mill.

Larry running up the first hard spot at the "flopper" We all hugged that wall on the driver side.

John getting close too.

Me attempting the middle line at the "v-notch" obstacle. It's steeper than it looks!

I ended up on the end of my winch cable as I just didn't have the right line and we didn't want me to snap another front shaft early into our weekend.

Larry taking the far left line on the same section. He ended up on the end of the cable too as his unlocked 60 wouldn't pull him over the top.

John walked over it. He took the middle section but went more to the right and caught it diagonally.

Can't beat the scenery in the Colorado mountains when the leaves start to turn.

The main carnage of the trip. Larry tagged his tie rod and steering stabilizer. Ian at work to pull the damaged stabilizer.

Coming up the last section of what they call "Bowling Ball Hill". Nothing but large loose rock to crawl over as it moves under your tires.

Camp setup.

Relaxing.

Cool waterfall behind camp lit by the morning sun.

We fixed Larry's stabilizer in Fairplay CO at a Napa and hit back up to the Mosquito pass trail. The Aspens were changing when we came though.

More old mine relics. This is the mill for the London mine that is located above on the mountian side.

Aerial tram building. This connected the mine to the mill below.

At the top, 13,185 feet above sea level.

It was a successful trip since I'm the one that would bust something and didn't.
