Did this trail in a Toyota Trecel…. It’s an easy drive just steep cliffs.

Dad took me, my brother and mom down this trail for a family jaunt about 15 years ago in an old 1970's jeep. He didnt tell us what to expect until we got there and handled the trail like an old pro. Love you dad

My god, this is the first overlanding channel I've found that doesn't play nauseating music. Thank you!

Did I just hear “my old school mexican tiger blanket”? Hell yeah, man. You know your stuff.

Just did this trail a few weeks ago in my XJ Cherokee (was first person there, same day the Wrangler rolled). The trail isn’t that tough... BUT no video can convey the uncomfortable feeling of being off-camber mere feet away from a cliff. I’ve knocked it off the list, but I don’t need to do it again. Poughkeepsie Gulch was far away my favorite trail in the region.

I have to say, watching you wheel with live audio, and quiet toyota engines, was very nice. Its amazing to be in a place like you are, and sometimes loud exhaust gets old real fast, especially on an overland trip.

Overlanding is just getting to a hunting spot, without the hunting

KZfaq recommendations got it right. Definitely underrated. I will now binge watch your videos.

You guys were killing me taking that switchback way to tight.....

Wow, what a trip! The views are amazing and terrifying at the same time! Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed it.

"I'm not gonna lie, I'm shaking right now." I'm not gonna lie either, so am I. looooll. Thank you for sharing!!!

I really enjoy your videos man, they're so well put together, really tells a story and they're interesting start to finish! Thanks for inspiring me.

Great video, footage and editing. Wow, amazing experience you had. This is what the outdoors is all about.

Being from this part of Colorado (and even having gone to middle school in Telluride) it was interesting that I was able to guess where these guys were from. After the first few minutes of the video, I was like, "I bet they're totally from California." and I finally caught a glimpse of a license plate, and yup, Cali. They're totally cool and chill guys, and I wouldn't hesitate to hang out with them, but it's interesting how "outdoorsy" people are different from region to region. It's like they're their own type of rugged, which is like, kind of cleaner? More stylish? More with it? All your clothes looked laundered and wrinkle free. Even the hoodies. And your trucks looked super nice too. Maybe "California Rugged"? And it's really different from what I'm used to which I guess is "Colorado Rugged". Ha ha. Glad you guys enjoyed your visit to the San Juans, and thanks for the great video!

Well done video. This is the good stuff man. Thanks for the production, and the inspiration.

Bad ass video man like always and one day I’ll be hitting that Colorado trail to looks really nice keep up that good work vato.

Absolutely epic! Awesome video George. 🤙🏼

Great video with a great group of guys! Nicely done, George! 👊🏽🍒

The footage you got is incredible. That burrito looks even better!

You cannot beat the comfort and warmth of a Mexican tiger blanket.

What a great video! From off-roading to the awesome great views! Awesome man!

who needs all these streaming services when we have this, amazing video.

Thanks for sharing the video. As I see the fun and important part is the friendships. Friendship don't make you get boring ro enjoy the overlanding. Keep more videos.

I have seen other youtubers vlog about this trail but man your video tops them bro. Thank You for this

Definitely cool video! I drove all the way out there from Florida back in July and did the passes. Black Bear was my favorite. I was alone and had the trail pretty much to myself. No spotter and it rained and sleeted coming down the steps. But I lived. Lol.

Nice Trip man!! Thanks for sharing your experience and the awesome views!!

Thanks for sharing; so cool seeing those FJs!

One of the better channels for overlanding that I’ve discovered. Really great. You’ve earned my follow :)

This video had some amazing shots in it. Great job!

it's like watching the dicovery show, love you bro love all you overlanders ~~ Keep bringing it!

Bro great video and great music!!!! Really dig your channel man.

Great trip!!! Black Bear Pass is still on my To Do List!!!

I just did black bear a few days ago. It poured down rain right as we got to the steps. That made it exceptionally scary! But... the whole crew took it slow, and spotted each other down. I have to say... this trail is a one and done for me. I'm glad I went and did it, but I definitely don't plan to return! Lol

Breathtaking views, nice job man.

Just found your channel. You do a great job. Can't believe you don't have more subscribers. Subscribed and will share your video's. Great work and sweet rig's.

Did you mean to say the buildings in Ouray look like they’re from the 1860’s? 1960’s would be ranch style mid mod.

Probably the best footage I’ve seen of black bear pass. Good stuff bro

6:30 perfect time to use that crawl control.

Thanks G!!! Great video and an inspiration to me - love the footage man. Awesome rig lineup too! - From South Africa 🇿🇦

I want to do this trail but man. I was so anxious watching that, great video.

great edit on an Epic trail. Just did Black Bear this summer, in my 2016 Taco with OME!

Watching this makes me want to get a truck and start hitting trails. Love the content.

I’ve been on some brutal trails here in Colorado I hiked them ,drove through them, All the above.🤘

Beautiful! Thanks 🙏 Brothers!

Great video and some cool camp spots. I love the portable camp Wok stove!

Super dope video. Keep up with the good content. I like these type of videos.

Just stumbled on this video, and you're putting out some great stuff! Subscribed and keep up the dope videos!

You guys really know how to cook some good food!! Great job on the video also.🤗

That was awesome. Nice video. Thanks for sharing. Cant wait to see next episode.🚙🚙🚙👍

Thanks for sharing and your video makes The Steps look a little less scary than others.

Such amazing video man!

lmfao "My old school Mexican tiger blanket" Dude I can totally relate to that!

So much fun, love it.

very enjoyable video, thanks for sharing!

Just took the pass today, to say I was scared was an understatement. But the view is worth the “stairs” 💯

Editing with this video was on point 👊 Can't wait for the next episode.

This is 100% great offroad trip video.

As a tacoma owner that was nice thanks for sharing

"you end up in the forest somewhere, and this is where you die" hahaha awesome video dude! 🤘Makes me want to plan a trip out there.

Beautiful scenery. Scary as hell though. When camping in the cold make sure to bring a nice sleeping pad with a high r-value to help some of the loss of heat due to conduction. It's a game changer. Great video.

Probably one of your best videos man! 🤙🏼I hope to one day do that trail!

You guys were in my neck of the woods. Grew up in colorado. Some of the best camping, fishing, hunting and hiking in the whole US! Looks like you had a good time.

Good times guys! living life right.

MY GOD That drop wow!!!

Bucket list trail for sure 🤙🏻🙏🏻

Awesome video.....keep the grind going!!! 👍🏾✌🏾

Another awesome video. So beautiful there.

Great video thanks guys 👍🏻

Personally a Jeep fan, but damn those are some amazing rigs. Love the vid!

2:12 That bass rattled my weak computer subwoofer for 10 seconds! Btw, nice video!

Great content! Thanks for sharing!

Wow brass balls my friends lol, some of those twists and turns had my blood pressure up just watching you.

Sweet vids bro!! Great vibes!

Great video George! This is on my bucket list.

Hey man , that was an awesome video! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Eye-no-gene and You-ray. Great video Toyo guys.

Another awesome video bro!

Very fun adventure with the people you hang out with.

Did this Pass after doing Mosquito Pass with my "99" Silverado Z-71 factory stock except for the 285 Destination MT's on it with cap on back. Fun times!

Nice video for sure. awesome editing!

Lol @2:59. Most of the buildings in Ouray are from the end of the 19th century. Great shots in this!

Very cool video! Excited to take on the challenge myself sometime soon.

People living in nearby Colorado: oh great, more lifted Toyotas with California plates.

Another great video brother!

Nice work brother! Ill subscribe and keep watching. Good video and conversation.

you guys have the sickest toyota crew!!

Great video! That trail is at the top of my list. :)

I-mo-gene....I - like you and *I*... really great video with a different perspective than any others I’ve seen. Glad you enjoyed our neighborhood.

Nice looking rigs fellas! Cool video! I’m partial to the Fjs.

Been to Ouray many times. It's not just some town, that is Off Road Town USA except for maybe Moab. Also, hugging the right side down the steps and making the turn makes this trail more dangerous, not less. Should be lots of guys on the different yota forums that could've told you this. Great vid though and glad you experienced it.

Epic views George I follow some of those dudes too. You should do another trip with you all have upgraded your rigs for 2022-23 Happy Holidays !

You and your bro’s are bad ass!

i was there the last week! Spectacular views!

Very cool video. You do a great job!

Another banger. 👊🏼

You guys are havi g a wonderful time. I wish i was there.

You should look into investing in a USMC sleeping system. The less layers you have on the warmer it gets. It's composed of 3 pieces (one sleeping bag for cold temperatures that your body will be making contact with, a warm weather sleeping bag that will wrap around the cold weather bag, and an outer shell that we call a cocoon that protects against wind and the elements that wraps on the outside of the two other bags). You'd have to buy it on ebay because they're military issue only and not available for sale to the civilian market.

Seems like some GTA free runs .. amazing stability guys .. superb

Amazing places and cars!!

The opening with the Spanish guitar felt like a scene from Desparado
