Does anyone know if or when Black Bear Pass is open?

[Dusty Dude]

I’m starting to plan a trip to Ouray for some BOH trails. I was hoping that BB pass would be on the list of trails to do.

Any info on status?

Not listed as open on their last update, but contact CORE for status: https://www.keeptrailsopen.com/contact It never did open last year, fingers crossed for this year.

A group here (JLWF) as well as Colorado Springs Four Wheelers are planning an Ouray trip around Labor Day.

It should be opening soon. We'll be camping down there next month.

I’m waiting for my ARB dual compressor to show up via UPS in the next hour, it’s getting installed under the passenger seat, and I’m heading out to Black Bear Pass!

What are you using to mount it?

I used ARB's mount in my last Wrangler and it was very "meh". You have to cut / align everything perfectly or the filters will be a pain to deal with.

I used the Kraken in this rig and yeah, it's awesome. Installation is simple since there's no cutting of carpet / ducting required. The only issue is that it sits a bit far back, so people sitting in the rear seat might hit it with their toes.

Wut? Are you thinking about running BBP?

attempting to do all 5 boh trails. I had given up on the idea thinking BBP wasn’t going to open.

In had to cancel my Moab trip in Sept because of work so hoping to do this trip instead. Will also depend on how my clutch install goes.
