The Jeep in its Element

Camp Bird Road outside of Ouray, Colorado - September 2004. This road leads to the Sneffels town site, the Camp Bird Mine, and the famous Yankee Boy Basin.

This rocky section of Camp Bird Road was blasted out of the canyon walls.

Old stuctures such as this one on the Engineer Pass leg of the Alpine Loop National Backcountry Byway harken images of a time that is long past.

A wrong turn in Silverton, Colorado led us to Hurricane Pass and Corkscrew Gulch. This photo was taken at the top of Corkscrew bewteen the two Red Mountains.

The remaining structures in the ghost town of Animas Forks - a once-bustling mining community north of Silverton, Colorado - are maintained by volunteers from the San Juan County Historical Society so that visitors may enjoy the site for years to come.

Palo Duro Canyon State Park on a rainy, misty day - September 2004.

The hills of the Kiamichi Wilderness in Pushmataha County, Oklahoma offer some enjoyable, but somewhat limited trails.

It is technically private property, but it is open to the public. There are no gates, signs, or markers indicating that you are anywhere special.

Over the years, a wide variety of outdoorsmen have purchased land in this area in small plots ranging from 5 to 20 acres or more.

There are no fences separating property except for the private property surrounding the Wilderness, and it has always been understood that anyone with property within the Wilderness is free to roam where they please. There are, however, many private cabins in the area, and common sense should dictate what areas should be avoided.
