Re: Mark your calendars

We ran at 20psi the whole time we were in Ouray last year. No problems. Didn't air up until we left on Monday and then we did that in Rangely. You will be fine.

I think after we run Argentine we are going to do Spring Creek. Then we have the challenge, or a bit more.

Re: Mark your calendars

ocr14a:

If you've never done Argentine, believe me, it is WELL worth doing... (see the pic I posted)

Difficuly may be no more than a 4, but the scenery can not be beat. You get to go to extreme altitudes (which I love), play in the snow all year, etc. It actually is kind of like a San Juans trail in that regard.

I think you need to define what you like about 4-wheeling....

I mean, in my case for instance, negotiating obstacles is boring as hell. I'd much rather drive a fire road to beatiful pristine country than negotiate man-made obstacles at a 4x4 park....

Adventure and freedom is the name of the game... YMMV....

Ok, cool.
Thanks. Ya, I totally get the sceneray thing, and my heart is in the San Juans (go there every summer - at least once - and sometimes in the spring and fall too). So, when I saw your pic from the Argentine Pass area, that is exactly what I thought of....immediately. Thanks a lot for posting and for your helpful comments.

I didn't know we were going to such extremes.
If I did, I would not have even commented in the first place.

I'm not sure why it has to be one extreme or the other.

Again, thanks for the helpful comments though.

Thanks, Athena.

So, the Argentine run may be more the liking of our Minnesota guests.

Really! Could you be a little more specific, I don't want to assume anything.
