  • Recorded on the July 4th 2015 weekend, we spend several days with Dan Mick exploring the San Juan Mountains in Colorado. There's a wide variety of topics including visits to Ouray, Telluride and Silverton CO, travel over Engineer & Imogene passes, and visits to mining ruins such as Animas Forks and Tomboy.

    Great video, Dan..Fun viewing of outrageous Colorado scenery, and all in sharp HD !!! My wife and I have been spending as much summer time as possible in SW Colorado for the past 20 years and never tire of taking in those tremendous mountain vibes!

      Colorado is trash for extirpating it's Grizzly Bears especially in the San Juan Mountains, state is changing though, hunters and ranchers look out major pressure is coming 1st with wolves being approved by voters to come back

    Wonderful you could go up that far. You are not afraid of heights? lol. I am a lady 73 in Oregon. I read the book , "Tomboy Bride, by Harriet Fish Backus. She got married in 1902 and lived with her husband at Telluride and he worked The Tomboy mine and Smuggler mine, I think. wish I could visit there, but at lower level.lol. thanks

    Didn't Roy Rogers say "We can't all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap has the parade goes by"?... I think the entire town was marching in their own parade!!

    Dan seems to have a wealth of experience… What kinda lift system is he running? And are those 40's?

    • @foroad
      @foroad  8 років тому

      +Roc900 Dan does have a wealth of experience. He's been doing tours for over 25 years. He's running a Teraflex lift on all the Jeeps. Tires are 38" Falkens.

      +Tom Grancey Does Dan have the Stock Motor? Or Hemi?

    • @foroad
      @foroad  8 років тому +1

      +Roc900 His Jeep is a Hemi conversion, auto trans, Atlas transfer case.

    • @Roc900
      @Roc900 8 років тому

      +Tom Grancey Lol…. I seen his Jeep in another Video, And I heard the motor, It did not sound Stock!!!
      Hemi Conversions are not cheap!! It seems Industry Standard on the 6.4 Hemi is around 29K, And the 5.7 Hemi conversion is around 22K
      Do you have any experience with Superchargers or Turbos?? Or any thoughts? I have read a few Forums, And the the Best Supercharger I have read the best reviews was Ripp??
