Up and Down Tincup Pass

The Tincup Pass videos are now up on YouTube. This was without a doubt the slowest drive both up and down. It seemed like most of the road was embedded rock with a bit of dirt and gravel here and there.

On a side note, there is a bit of confusion on exactly how to spell Tincup. On some signs and websites it is spelled Tin Cup. On others it is spelled Tincup.

Like the others it is for your enjoyment and should not be used for any other purpose.

Up and Down Weston Pass in Real Time

The Weston Pass video is now up on YouTube. The road to this pass was littered with small loose rock making JR rattle and vibrate on the way up. The way down had more embed rock.

Like the others it is for your enjoyment and should not be used for any other purpose.

The Hagerman Pass video is now up on YouTube. There are some really rough and rocky sections on this road as well as one section with an off camber obstacle that you need to work through. The views of Turquoise Lake are spectacular.

Like the others it is for your enjoyment and should not be used for any other purpose.

Crooked Creek Pass in Real Time

Crooked Creek is the last of the passes we went over. You can think of it as a lovely drive through the woods on a decent gravel and dirt road.

Like the others it is for your enjoyment and should not be used for any other purpose.

After one week without power and three weeks without internet service (due to an ice storm) I am able to continue posting the trip report videos. Yes I know there are two Episode 2s, the video below this is actually Episode 1.
