Great video! I can't wait to there in summer. I'm planning to stay in Silverton with my family and just wondering how long it would take whole loop from there and also what areas to avoid just because it will be my first time and I don't want to scare off my kids especially my wife? Thanks
Freaking AWESOME. My family's(aunts n Uncles etc...) have been going to the silverton , Lake City Creede Area since the 70s. we missed the last 2 Years. Nice Drone video. Next time you up there try Imogene,Pycane and Kendall mountain. Its worth your time. We miss the mountains BAD. Hopefully be there the August. " Thanx Fer Sharin"
Just be careful. Most of my trips are solo as well but I always make sure someone knows where I'm going that day as a minimum. I also carry a Garmin InReach Mini and that thing is amazing! It allows two way communication and of course has an SOS button for emergencies. If you do a lot of solo trips I HIGHLY recommend getting one.
Nice trials you got out there in Colorado, some years I will come to Colorado with my Polaris 700 sportsman to ride this beautiful trails, god bless you.
Was that a GoPro or a camera phone on the intro. We're going to Silverton (3 Razors, 3 couples) in a few weeks. Very excited. Hope I bring everything I need. We're from Arizona.
How long did it take to get back all the way to silverton? Do you think it’s possible to do the loop in 8 hrs? My in laws are renting a sxs and it’s a 8 hr rental … going for 4th of July and can’t wait!
I wouldn't do it. Not because the truck couldn't physically make it, but because it can get pretty narrow at times on shelf roads so there would be no room to pass other vehicles going the opposite direction. That and there are a couple sharp turns that would be difficult for a full size truck.
@@billwaterhouse5894 A full-size can do about any trail out there. It really depends on your driving skills. I've taken my down black bear pass and tons of other trails in Colorado that people thought were not possible. I can back up on anything and built my truck from the ground up. Most people barely use there Jeep anyway for off-road and can't compare to me out all the time. This guy is legit and a solid off-roader and cool but uses Jeeps.
Don’t assume something is abandoned just because it is old. People own and pay taxes on a lot of these structures. And of course many claims were seized and stolen by our government or made obsolete because of zoning restrictions and regulations which obliterated owners’ rights.
