Who wants to come get your 5 badges??

7/29 - 8/1

The two overlandingish routes I'm thinking are:

Ophir > Black Bear > Imogene

Poughkeepsie > California > Engineer


I'd like to hit Crystal Mill too.

You're starting in Telluride? The "typical" loop would be Imogene -> Camp Bird -> down into Ouray and around to Black Bear to end up back where you started.

And then, you don't need to be bored out of your mind behind a Subaru or box truck that's lost on Ophir! Win/Win.

My friend is coming from CA so she wants to get Ophir too. I only need black bear and Poughkeepsie. When I get armor I’ll do holy cross.

I’ve been waiting for so long to do Black Bear. I drove by the trailhead the dang day it opened and didn’t know.

Soon enough I’ll live about an hour away. Can’t wait!

Is that your cryptic way of saying, "I want to come, please invite me!" ? ;) You're absolutely invited! I think we're going to hit it on 7/29, assuming weather is okay. Ophir then up to Black Bear. It'll be an early start to Ophir, I wonder if we could do a sunrise run?! That might be cool..... If you're interested, shoot me a message and I'll give you my phone number. I get enough spam calls/text as is to be posting it publicly and get more. :LOL:
