Friday morning 4am I left my hotel in Istanbul, about 27 hours later on friday night I left my house in the Jeep loaded up for Ouray. I finally made it mid day Saturday after a brief incident with a non functional temperature gauge (dropped like a rock from 210 to cold while climbing a steep hill, had me worried about overheating), and shopping for some replacement dress clothes for a wedding. To top it off I picked up a cold bug that turned into full blown Pneumonia. Still got to goto Ouray.

We also did a run up to Bullion King lake:
And of course we enjoyed the campfire:
Things got heated at some point:
We wrapped up the trip with a visit to animas forks:
Good trip and good company!
