Some of those pictures look good enough to have come out of a Jeep brochure from 25 years ago.
It sure looks like all of you had a great time. I would say you tied in a lot of the best scenery available and should have memories for all three generations.

That community you explored right off the highway looks a lot like Ironton. If you turned off from that area to head to Corkscrew Pass, then you were right in Ironton. Thanks for sharing your journey with us!
Thanks Unkamonkey. Having family share these trips are what really makes them memorable!Nice report, reminds me of all the trips I did with my parents around the state.
The last trip I had with my father was a father/son weekend on a friends property North of Buena Vista. Three fathers and five young'uns.
Just eating, shooting, drinking and some 4X4 action. Unfortunatly the land owner and all of the fathers have passed but a friends son holds an event every Labor Day on their mountain property. No shooting but plenty of food and beer. Well, food unless the bear gets in the cooler.
Wonderful report, such a beautiful area! Great pictures!
That "old' full size Jeep blended in well with the fall colors. You could get "drunk" on that florescent yellow color.
Nice pictures, I think the term used when they do some work on an old building so it doesn't fall a part but at the same time keep it in a old looking state is "arrested decay".
Nice work using the fire starter....makes one appreciate the old flint and "nest" method.
Thanks,

Beautiful area and beautiful pics. That is some of the nicest scenery in Colorado, which is saying something.
