    If it would not have been so cloudy on this day, there would be another good view of Rainer in the background!

    Grizzly bear. Bad shot but the best I have. We were hiking and in a bit of a hurry to GTFO.

    Any chance you could narrow down the location for the second shot a bit more? It's gorgeous! I'd swing by to see it next time I'm out that way.

    That section can be accessed off of US 550 just south of Silverton. There are a few options between Coal Bank Pass and Molas Pass. I started at Coal Bank pass and jumped on the Colorado Trail at the base of Engineer mountain. Definitely go check it out if you are in the area.

    20250614_065648.jpgNellis Air Force Base, on a 2100 mile road trip. 19.3 MPG, Air Dam removed, 83% octane, 2 ppl 450 lbs (luggage, ice chest, beach items, water, etc...), Air Conditioner ran 95 %, 70-85 MPH.

    Good: iForceMax has great passing power

    Bad: 19 gallon gas tanks is absurd! What was Toyita thinking ?
