Got some Ouray pics from other folks (my camera had it's own adventure that weekend...)

These are from Bud (BudBuilt Bud!) in Poughkeepsie Gulch





Ended up winching myself up and over the top

These are from Tony and Davin:
Heading up Engineer Pass


Partly cloudy, 75 degrees and a nice breeze...




We got high...


Tony climbing the Wall


He had better luck with this alternate spotter


This...


Followed by this...

Dug our way through, but 2 snow plugs later, called it a day.

Tony expertly walking me down the Wall



Day 1 we ran Engineer Pass to Lake City, then to Cinnamon Pass, California Gulch, and over Corkscrew Pass/Gulch back into Ouray.

Day 2 we ran Black Bear Pass into Telluride (got to have some rock slide while on one of the more entertaining switchbacks), then Imogene back to Ouray.

Day 3 we slept in, ate breakfast, then played in Poughkeepsie Gulch before dinner, raffle (and I didn't win a tee-shirt!) and nice chat with Bud about skid -stuff

Looking forward to vid from Tony.

Ran with a few FJs up to MSV and Coney Flats in celebration of a Chi-town visitor. Thanks to BigBlu for getting us all together.

Most of the pics and vid are in other folks' hands, but here's a taste:
