Upcoming trip TX-NM-CO Sept. 8-17th

[ENDVR Offroad]

We will be making a trip Sept. 8-17 and was hoping for some help or suggestions, We will be sleeping in the RTT every night and prefer to camp off the grid, but a campground for a couple nights would be ok. We are planning on doing the Alpine Loop, Imogene, Black Bear, ect.. If you have any trail suggestions, things to do, cool places to eat please let me know.

Also if anyone is going to be in the area during this time we would love to meet up!

Brown Bear in Silverton has the best pancakes in the world. No kidding.

I spend a lot of time that neck of Colorado. Happy to chat. Email me ryan@overlandbound.com.

Might even try to tag along for part. I'm headed up there Friday for the third time in 5 weeks.

I'm looking at doing Imogene pass on the 7th or 8th on my way from OKC to Jackson, WY. Maybe we'll cross paths!
