My wife and I were in Telluride for the Rotary 4x4 tour about 2 weeks ago. Thanks for the pictures and the write up, that area is like heaven! The only problem is that I now owe my wife a vacation on a beach

They only serve to give away your next move, causing most NM drivers to speed up and not let you in. In fact, use of directional signals within most large NM city limits is actual illegal.[*]NM law states that at least 50% of all paved surfaces within the state must be under construction at any one time. In all construction zones, at least half of the available lanes must be closed, regardless of whether any actual construction is be accomplished or not. Construction signs shall be regularly repositioned in order to warn drivers about upcoming lane closures immediately after they pass the last exit before traffic backups. [*]Driving through constructions zones with upcoming lane closures is a popular game in NM. It’s called the "speed up and pass as many cars as you can, then see how close to the lane closure you can squeeze back into traffic before hitting any of the orange construction barrels" game.[/LIST] |

this may sound crazy but i remember driving in the silverthorne area and seeing a XJ with rubi wheels thinking that looked pretty sharp. i was in my FJ which sometime makes it hard starting a conversation. we were there from Illinois and did several passes ourselves

Man,
This looked like an amazing trip. I've had my jeep for a year now...I think it's time to venture out and do a trip like this. The San Juans have been on my "to do" list. I only live about 7 hours from Durango. Thanks for the report! |

Great trip report! My son and I will be doing a lot of the same trails when we head out from Florida on September 8th. I'll be driving my TJ Rubicon and towing a small trailer, but Pearl will be our highlight!
Can't wait... thanks for sharing the pics! Binski
