This 4x4 Trail Lead To The Most Epic Campsite In Colorado
I ventured out solo with the Fj Cruiser into the Colorado mountains. I found what I think may be one of the most epic campsites I have ever come across. Awesome trails, 360 degree mountain views, hail, rain, sleet, and rainbows. Join me as I sit on top of the landscape, capture the sunset, the stars, and dream of what's to follow. This was an absolutely awesome adventure!

Camped at 12000ft elevation in Colorado. It was AMAZING, words can't describe how it is up that high. Oxygen is noticeably lower up there lol. My whole crew was huffing and puffing just doing light work. Core memories though, can't express that enough.

Yeah it can be incredible. Some people can get headaches though, so its wise for out of staters to be prepared to leave or have a little bottle of oxygen if needed.

Some of the shots dont even look real and thats why Im glad im also in colorado cause i know it is. I am curious though, you mentioned the new vehicle will be able to stay out longer than the FJ, are there things you have found about your rig that kind of hold you back versus having like a tacoma or 4runner?

@IndependenceOverland 2 ай бұрын

Yes, the Fj is just small. My trips have gotten bigger. If I didn’t have a dog taking up 2/3 of the rear seat area, I would be a little better off but the rear doors aren’t the greatest for accessing things. I need more access to my camera gear. I don’t want switching camera lenses to be as big of a hassle as it currently is. I’ve got stuff piled on top of my pelican that holds the camera gear. A new truck will allow more water, which will allow for nice showers out in BFE. That’s a big one. Having a long hot shower can make a huge difference and I just don’t have space for water. And a space I can sit and stand in that is separate from the cab. I love being in nature, but after a week or so the road you just don’t want to be over taken by bugs or blowing sand. Having at least some sort of space to be inside of that can be heated or cooled, and bug free, will leave space for a little bit of recharging. So it’s mostly just having more space for organization. I really don’t plan to carry much more than I do currently, I just don’t want everything piled up.

@AsterixmGame 2 ай бұрын

@@IndependenceOverland No that’s completely understandable and I get it. Sometimes a nice shower isn’t just to get clean it’s a morale boost as well. You also dont want to get rid of your adventure buddy just to have more room, it would make you both sad, Im sure blue loves going out and I know you love having her. Either way Im excited for the new truck, and Im glad i could learn a bit from you.
