    Here's a pro tip- when wheeling in other areas (not with your group) place a visible sticker or 2 on your windshield or jeep indicating your primary channel. i.e. FRS 4, or GMRS 20, or CB13, etc... Sounds geeky but I've seen people doing this and it's great, especially on switch backs or up and down hill trails. Keeps folks from stopping to communicate and simply reaching out, communicating about something and then moving on. I noticed this out in CA a few times and also on the east coast.

    Love all your videos as you know but I really love the Colorado ones. There’s just something special about Colorado that makes you want to keep going back.

    Pro Tip at 9:50?? Good advice but there's an uphill vs downhill rule already. As I understand the uphill has the right away. The downhill vehicle should generally yield to the uphill as it has more control. (note: not my rule, just saying what I've seen, heard, experienced and read from places like expedition portal). Makes sense since the downhill vehicles weight (from a weight vector perspective) is placing pressure on the front steer / primary brake wheels thus allowing steering control. Uphill vehicle in a stop condition then trying to back up wouldn't have that control on the steer tires since they would be on the uphill side thus allowing you to slide out if braking while backing up. Also keeping momentum up hill especially steep hills is critical as wheel spin could prevent forward motion if you stop possibly creating an even more critical situation. Just clarifying for any newbies out there.

      I think the right away is almost always circumstantial. But it is nice to have the foundation of the normal to go off of. Good tip!

      ⁠​⁠@@BenandBrandi Good video and nice family. First time viewer and I really enjoyed your content. I just wanted to agree with comments regarding vehicle right of way by previous commenter. If two vehicles traveling in opposite directions meet on a steep, single-lane mountain road, the driver facing downhill must yield to the driver facing uphill. In this situation, you must reverse carefully until the uphill-facing driver has enough room to pass safely.

      Yes....
      Up hill has the right of way.
      But if your going up and ya got a place to pull over safely right near ya.....
      Be nice and do it. 😉

    Stumbled on your video.
    Too bad The Bear was closed.
    Its a GREAT trail.
    Ouray County Road Crews do an AMAZING job getting the trails open by the 4th of July.
    BUT.....
    sometimes it just dont work out. Rock falls and snow pack are unpredictable.
    I always wait for a week or two after the forth to go.
    My favorite run up there is to do The Bear and then return up over Imogene Pass.
    Makes for a long day but is VERY doable. Just be prepared to possibly do part of the east side of Imogene in the dark. It has happened to me once. Made it about 2o minutes into the tree line and it was starting to get dark. By the time i got to the tirn off to Yankee Boy, it was dark. Made the left and went up to the top of Yankee Boy.
    The night sky from up there is just ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!
    (yes.. i have plenty of lights on my Jeep)
    Anyway. .. ..
    Great video!
    Stay Safe Brother and Happy Wheeling!

    I'm a Colorado native, I hate when people from out of state come here n think they know all about trails in our high country!
