Is the Poughkeepsie Bypass worth driving? Join us as we find out! First, Bill and I explore an unmarked mine near our campsite. Then we head off along the Alpine Loop to Poughkeepsie Gulch with Reacher and Tristan. More shelf roads, technical challenges, and epic Colorado views await on this journey. Come along!

So much fun.

[@JourneyBeyondOverland]

Glad you enjoyed it! This was one of Bill's favorites.

In 2011 I did Poughkeepsie. I missed the turn to the wall and ended up driving the bypass. Didn't know it at the time, only knew I somehow missed the wall. I've wondered if my accidental trail eventually opened as a bypass and apparently it did. Three years later :-)

[@JourneyBeyondOverland]

That entire area is so beautiful that it would be a shame to miss it just because of a little thing called the wall. We enjoyed the bypass, but Bill is adamant he is going to drive the wall the next time he is out there. Enjoy your adventures!

great content, great narrator.

[@DeanJohnson67]

was going to say the same thing! Love the Narration style of their videos!!

[@JourneyBeyondOverland]

Thank you so much! The trails are awesome on their own, but learning their stories (or the stories of others on the trail) make them even better.
