Not So Pro 3

Anything heading to Animas Forks was fun too, like Corkscrew Gulch and California Pass. Ophir was ok and Clear/Crystal (can’t remember which) Lake was a fun short run. We usually camped at the KOA just outside of Ouray, but stayed at the hotel in Ouray a couple times too, and most recently we rented a house a few miles up the foothills outside of Ridgeway. That was my favorite place to stay - elk could be seen every night. We started out going over the mountain passes with Jeep’s and Blazers, even a Ext Cab F250 once. But switched to 4 wheelers for the last few times out there. We could cover a lot more ground, and everyone got to drive and have fun. Just got to be a PITA if we wanted to head into town or catch another trail with all the loading and unloading..

I always enjoyed spending more time in Silverton than Ouray. I guess I was always drawn to its rougher nature - more stuck in time, if you will. Some of my family has taken the steam engine to Durango, but I never got that chance each time we were out.

I’ve been to Telluride a few times too, mostly coming over Imogene, and once on Last Dollar. We attempted Black Bear once but there was a rock slide blocking the trail, so we turned around. My dad has since been all the way across it 2 or 3 times now in his 2012 JK. It’s been 10 years since I’ve been out that way at all.

That whole area is a cool part of the state. Two of my uncles (on my moms side) used to own close to 400 acres, in the 70's through early 90's near Ridgeway. We used to go visit when I was just a little crapstain. They sold the ranch in the early 90's when prices started climbing, I think they have regrets not keeping it. I've done some houses in the Ridgeway area for a guy I used to sub from. I really like that area.

Silverton is like stepping back in time. There's a few towns down there, just have a older feel to them, like time has not caught up yet.

Hauling 9 calves to the sale barn in the morning. Prices are stupid high. Wish me luck.

My father in law was telling me that last weekend. Prices so high you’d be crazy not to sell at least a few.

Monday the 19th is National Hickey Day, International Tug of War Day, and National Chocolate Mint Day.

Not sure I want a visual of how you plan to celebrate those 3 things, I don't think fapping counts as tug of war?!?!

Monday is heritage day here , so I’m gonna club some seals, smoke some weed and drink maple syrup flavoured whiskey, maybe play road/pond hockey afterwards

 

[maulhead]

It is also president’s day which is much less exciting but some dumb mfer is paying me to celebrate some other dumb mfer so who am I to judge?? I’ll take it!!

Plus you ain’t never seen me fap bish! It’s a full on tug o war…

I'll just take your word on that. I'm not into watching.

Where does the anchor line attach...

Surprised you didn't get jumped on for making a husky anchor joke. Infringing on one of dalls jokes.

Last time I made one, I about got tarred & feathered, for infringing on someone else's joke.

In my defense, I mistakenly assumed you were a new fukkwit.
But now I know you're a returning fukkwit.
Apology accepted?

It's almost like a trick question, either way I'm still labeled as fukkwit. Lol

Everything is cool here.

If I was going to live in the general area, I would choose somewhere near Ridgeway, with its close proximity to Montrose for supplies, and also only a short trip to Ouray and beyond for the trails. Living in Silverton would be cool, but I can only imagine that the cost of living there is high because of how remote it is. Either way, I still love visiting those places and hope to get back sooner than later.

Mine had a chain steering wheel like all the magazines suggested. I might have had the rakers at the wrong height tho, coz it cut my hand a lot.
