Thanks Raptor! I was born and raised in and around Durango. Been on almost all of the trails around there. I am going back to see family and do some camping. Just wanted to see if anyone was gonna be up there those days. Not looking for a date or a meet and greet just seeing if any other xjs will be out there on those days.

Looks like Black Bear Pass, a one-way down to Telluride.

The 4th pic is black bear, specifically the power house above Bridal Vail falls. The 5th pic is imogene. All the pics here are either blackbear, imogene or poughkeepsie.

We had a great time, but now I have no money.
Jason H. you don't need a lift for most of those trails. You can even do Black Bear if you take your time and you are cautious. Poughkeepsie you will need a lift for. I would recommend at least 3.5 and 31's. Also, I disconnected my swaybar after about the first 1/4 mile, and I just went down it. To go up you will need a locker or a winch. The pic I included is a wrangler with an ARB that was having trouble going up the most difficult obstacle.
As far as a friend, I can't help you there, but you will probably make one out on the trail. Just go and explore and figure out what your rig is capable of.
