I have about 160 shots from this run & about 1 1/2 hours of video, including the waterfall section/ switchback negotation. I will try and get them posted soon.
I was only in Ouray for a short time, but I did go on two runs (besides the rescue run at night). The first was an easy one with amazing scenery (Yankee Boy Basin) and the next one was a more difficult one with equally amazing scenery. Thanks the to everyone at the summit for such a good time!
Re: Ouray: Yankee Boy Basin and Poughkeepsie Gulch
Nope, no one did.
I didn't look impossible, but it had all the right things to make it hard to get up. The mini-ledges that were on that wall were exactly spaced an FJ wheelbase apart, so when your rear tires had to climb something vertical, your front tires were off the ground. He might have been able to make it with front and rear lockers, or maybe with the atrac hack, but trying both by themselves didn't work.
Also, there was a mud hole before that climb, so no one had dry tires. As I said in another thread, there was a heavily modified jeep there on 37" iroks that didn't make it up either.
I'd love to see someone with the inchworm crawler on try it. I bet they'd have more luck.
Well, until the high-res better shots go up, I figured I'd post a few (from my phone) from a great run I had with Seth and Tim on Friday up Yankee Boy Basin....enjoy...
