Cunuckgaucho Posted December 4, 2021 Report Posted December 4, 2021 The elevation map near the end(1:13:50) was an eye opener.
DNP Posted December 4, 2021 Report Posted December 4, 2021 That steepest section is about an 8.5% grade for average. 4500 feet in 10 miles.
Sisco Posted December 4, 2021 Report Posted December 4, 2021 Did some Jeep trips in my International Scout in the Absarokas and Beartooths between Montana and Wyoming in the 70’s. Unforgettable.

Rsquared Posted December 8, 2021 Report Posted December 8, 2021 That's some gorgeous looking countryside there. Just from the pictures.

Money can buy you a vehicle, and money can BUILD you a vehicle (usually NOT BUILT by those WITH the money - they hire someone to build it for them). Money can't buy you experience. Seen it in the Dunes since 2004. Seen it 4-wheelin' in the PNW for over a decade before that.
