Re: Ouray-Silverton Wheelin
Wow that Willys Utility Wagon looks great. I think that is the original SUV in my book.
You either have to up grade them or keep them all original.
I had one years ago and miss it sometimes, but having disc brakes, power steering, a heater and defroster that work, and a stero you can hear is kind of nice. I took mine all through Death Valley and the southwest.

Re: Ouray-Silverton Wheelin
Man, I love Ouray. Durango is pretty too. I was a bit shocked when someone in Durango messed with one of my stickers on the H3. I woulda thought Hummers would be more welcomed in places like that.  Anyways, plan on going every August. It's only 10 hours for us with options to stop at Mesa Verde. Cool! I thought that it could not be "Switzerland of America" but I was wrong. It did look like the Alps once you are on the trail.  Did Imogene and Pioneer Pass (?). Rained like heck one day and the next day a boulder fell on a jeep and killed the driver. Y'all remember that?

Yeah, unfortunatly Durango is NOT Hummer friendly as there is an overabundance of liberal, Subaru driving, granola types  who single out the Hummer brand because it is the root of the war in Iraq and symbolizes George Bush.  Never mind it falls in line with all other SUV's and trucks in the milage department. I could slap hybrid or hydrogen powered all over it and it still wouldn't matter.
But, it is where I call home and I defiantly continue to love my H3. Might have to join up with some of you throughout the summer!

Re: Ouray-Silverton Wheelin
Apparently the FJ's are having a nationwide FJ summit in Ouray, mid July.
http://www.fjsummit.org/
If 100 or more of them show up, it would put a pinch on rooms available there.
I hope most of them are gone by the last couple weeks of July. So I won't have to pay a higher price for the same rooms.
