    Brother, great video. I grew up in Lake City and went to school for one year in the small school house in the middle of town. For High School we took the bus to Gunnison Colorado. Planning to visit the area this September on our way back from Alaska. As a kid, I hiked many of those trails you drove. Great memories.

    Great video 👌 I really like the simple, chilled, understated style how you edit and film, really makes you feel like you're there and gives you time to absorb it without distracting music or overdoses of narration. Kinda gives that feel like in the movie Cast Away👌 Nicely done

    Just a word of advice... You should have a dedicated hose for filling your tanks on the camper, preferably one that is made for drinking water if using your tanks for drinking, cooking and cleaning. Not sure of the hose you used, but it looks like that could be an RV dump station, in which case people use the hose often to clean their waste tanks and sewage pipes. You can always disinfect your tanks with chlorine if needed. Hate to see you get sick on your adventures!

    I have watched this series a few times now. I now live in Durango, and pass through Ouray frequently. I have yet to explore the National Forest roads in this area…getting settled and building a shop on my property this summer.
    I have a khaya mounted on my F350 Tremor….and I love it! I had a canopy camper on my Tacoma which I also really liked…just didn’t like the lack of power and transmission hunting that it did. No such problem with my 6.7 Tremor.
    My question if I may…given I have a full size truck…very capable with lockers, etc…would you expect me to have any issues going up Engineer pass? I was really surprised at how few people you came across…or you just didn’t film it?
    Thank you again for taking the time to do this. I wish you the best at whatever you are doing these days.

    • @ok4wd
