Have had the AZ BDR map by Butler for a while, it's pretty nice quality. Thinking of doing some in my Jeep, if anyone was thinking same, lmk. Would be fun!

I think that's awesome! We did the Colorado BDR last summer and had a blast. Definitely do it! You won't regret it!

We are looking to do either WA, OR, or ID in May of this year.

12-14DEC25 (4).webp
curious if you tried any of the Idaho routes this year? going to attempt some of the The Idaho BDR In June but when I called one of the ranger stations to ask about the Lolo Motorway and Magurder I was told lots of storm damage in December means it is going to be iffy if they are cleared before July. I will call again in a week or so to see if any updates.

Did you do the Magruder with the trailers?
We did, the magruder was the first place we hit dirt. Then we worked our way south from there and came out at warm lake and hit pavement again there. It was a great trip. Camped on the Salmon River almost every night.

Hello. I've not. Due to weather and snow load, we went via MT to Yellowstone, then some hot springs in CO, then did Rim Rocks from CO to UT, then worked our way home. More tourist stuff, something different than normal. I can say that ~ 14 MPGs at over $5 a gallon sucked.
