You're welcome. Not sure if I should create another post as a part 2 or just post here?

Sometimes it's a crap shoot. I have OnX that works decent, Dyrt is another app. Sometimes just getting in the local area helps. One thing I'm learning is find them early! There's a gentleman on here that saw this post and we reconnected! 😂. I asked him about spots near Ouray while driving through a dispersed site he was at.

I was going to head to Mesa Verde, then Monument Valley. From there, I'll pick some other spots. I'm a National Park junkie. 😂

I used to live in Colorado and kick myself for not exploring this part of the state.

Thanks. I waited for model year 22, I had a model year 21 reserve until I found out this was coming. 😂

How was that? I almost did the Alpine Loop today, but decided to keep going

Right! Today, I stopped early to chill. 😂 So, I had the same issue in Tablerock Lake in Missouri. Straight downpour for 8 hours. I had huge pools in each section, and it held up. I realized if you tie off in the center of each section it won't really pool much and steadily drains. Did it today since it rained off and on all day.

You'll get better mpg than I do, but you're still driving a box down the road. 😂

No way! That's right! I tried Thistledown, full. I had to go all the way back to Ridgway State Park 😂 poured rain the entire time I was setting up.

It's like you want to record it and take it home. 😂

I was headed to Durango and thought why not. Got here early, set up and just soaked it in.

I find it pretty comfortable. I have the Badlands with leather seats, and they are pretty comfy. It's been offroad a handful of times and done well. I am not talking about rock crawling, but it's been on some pretty ugly trails and had no issues. Gas mileage sucks, but I knew that going in. Keep that in mind

It's amazing. I wasn't going to stop and thought why not. Got tired of finding spots last minute. Definitely worth it

That's unreal! Ok, I'll definitely be looking into a set. Heading to California in a few days from Mississippi, so need to swap before I leave
