Overlanding Through The San Juan’s | Engineer Pass, Poughkeepsie Gulch, Black Bear, Imogene

Overlanding Through The San Juan’s | Engineer Pass, Poughkeepsie Gulch, Black Bear, Imogene

Last year I went on a trip through the San Juan Mountains of Colorado with my 2 best friends and created a multi part series to document it. With Summer ahead of us, I am releasing this to inspire you to get out there and enjoy this beautiful landscape.

My editing has come a long way since the initial release of this series, so some audio, coloring, and general editing has been remastered for a better experience. Let me know what you think!

    Love seeing others enjoy this part of Colorado. I have been 4wheeling these trails for most of my life with my grandpa and dad, and now i am enjoying the scenery although I am 800 miles away.

    Fantastic video, i appreciate the time, effort and passion put into this.
  • @flyfisher530
    Nice video Tyler. Friends make these trips so special, and you have some good buddies there with you. Memories for a lifetime!
  • @wb5jysman
    Everyone has that "one" friend. 😂😂
  • @NelgSelbor
    Allan, Stew and Doug. The wolfpack is back
  • @artofwar1776
    Another good one man. By far my favorite overlanding videos to watch.
  • @4x4Guac
    That rock crawl was insane. I am surprised you attempted it because of being top heavy. Great call though with winch.
  • @joelbriz
    Epic!! Great shots and scenery! Thanks again for sharing your travels! Absolute legend!
  • @Bergo101
    Just saw this new release and 1 minute in I already know it's gonna be epic. thanks for sharing your adventures! I'm here for the mighty FJ and beautiful scenery :)
  • Great and fun video. We are heading back there July 16th and can’t wait. Hope to tackle the Wall with the Bronco while there.
  • @TheGrumpyGobbler
    Of course I watched the series when you first released them, but was nice to see it all put together like this.
  • @4x4adventure_pl
    This video is a visual journey into the heart of overlanding and the magic of the wild. The scenes of navigating challenging terrains and then finding respite in nature's embrace showcase the delicate balance between adventure and tranquility. It's a testament to the unbreakable bond between humanity and the untamed world.
  • @ipdjbt
    This hour and a half flew by! Very well done!
  • @blakerast7951
    Watching this just really goes to show the testament to engineering of these vehicles. Amazing videos Tyler! We live out here in summit county and have loved seeing a different viewpoint of this amazing state we live in!
  • @stevef4304
    In the '80s and 90s, my wife and I visited there and the Gunnison range every year. Our old, stock Landcruiser did it all. I used bias ply Summit tires at 12 lbs. They got us over sharp rocks, limbs, mud, etc.
    Thanks for the memories guys.
  • @35jdub
    Love the San Juans! We go every year in the first or second weekend of October to see the colors of the landscape as they transition for fall!
  • @POVwithCOOK
    A great group of people! Man sitting by that fire getting free live music !!!! Living the life
  • @tykenneth1
    I found this video and absolutely loved the length. Thank you for not forcing me to watch 10-20 minute videos of an adventure that clearly lasted many hours. You get a follow and a new watcher.
  • @MissouriAdventures
    I really need to get out there. Maybe next summer if I can actually get some summer days off. Hopefully the economy will pickup and I don’t get paid off.
