Boosted Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 (edited) The GF and I spent a three day weekend in the Southwestern region of Colorado. From our home in Pueblo West we took I'25 to Walsenburg, and then 160 all the way to Durango. First time to Durango and using that highway, such a beautiful area and Wolf Creek Pass area was awesome! Our main destination was Durango, so we stayed at the Rochester Hotel/Leland House. Saturday we took the railroad out to a more remote location for an all day ziplining trip with "Soaring" tree top adventures. YES!! On Sunday we started with a short mtn bike ride in Durango, and then headed North on 550 to Silverton. From there we did some passes and mining roads. I took a few pics of places we went. It was an awesome time and I am excited to hit some more stuff in that area. Edited August 29, 2011 by Boosted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPLORx4 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Very cool! That brings back good memories. I ran a bunch of trails in that area in 2002. Look familiar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GApathfinder Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Great pictures man! Quick question, what size wheel spacers do you have(if any)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverton Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Probably no spacers, just a more negative offset/smaller backspacing than stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boosted Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Probably no spacers, just a more negative offset/smaller backspacing than stock. Yes that is correct, no spacers, just more offset on my Cragars so I can clear the tires. The setup worked out well on the passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick13 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I ran those passes twice last summer. Yeah, that's right, twice. That's because it's actually that awesome of an area to run. Nice pics, great view from the top of California Pass down to your rig - that was a nice shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pic was taken by my girl, with my blackberry cam which is quite simple so for what it is the pic turned out great! I will be getting better pics with a DSLR when I have the chance.
