IntrepidXpedition 2007 | Day 9
Friday, July 27, 2007
After a few days up in Grand Junction, I was headed back down to Silverton for the dinner and raffle the Colorado Chapter of NAXJA was putting on for ColoradoFest. Before I left the area, I had a few places I wanted to explore on my way south. I started off by heading to the Colorado National Monument.

Wednesday & Thursday, July 25-26, 2007
Most of my day on Wednesday was spent at the UFWDA Annual Convention. However when we finished for the day, the only thing on my mind was heading out and exploring the area just outside of town. Right near the hotel that the convention was held at is an OHV area at the base of the Book Cliffs called The Grand Junction Desert. I started out by following 27.25 Road north. Eventually the pavement turned to gravel and then to a bumpier trail.

On Tuesday, I had to start making my way to Grand Junction to attend the annual UFWDA Conference, but I didn’t have to arrive until later in the evening, so I had a bit of time to do some exploring before heading out. I woke up super early again to get squeeze as much exploring in during the daylight that I could. My plan was to take Ophir Pass over to Telluride and then to take Imogene Pass back to Ouray before heading north. Unfortunately, because of the storms I mentioned from the previous night, my plans would soon change.

I got up very early again this day and it was turning out to be a very nice day. My first goal of the day was to check out the Alpine Loop. I started out by making my way over to Engineer Pass.

The following morning I started out with a quick drive on US 50 from Monarch, CO to reach the start of Old Monarch Pass. My final destination at the end of the day will be Silverton, CO and I will be getting there by barely touching any paved roads all day.
