Follow along as we take on the Alpine Loop in our Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe!! This video covers the first part of the loop for us as we started in Silverton Colorado and made our way via Cinnamon Pass 4x4 off-road trail to Lake City, CO. We initially were worried as there were forecast for rain the entire week we planned on heading into the San Juan mountain region, so we had concerns that the trails would not be doable; luckily enough this didn't materialize and we were able to proceed with our mountain adventure!

This is going to be one of many videos covering the Alpine Loop and other fantastic trails in the San Juan mountain region so be sure to follow along (most of the trails we covered in this area are in fact Jeep Badge of Honor trails)!!

    In that old house, you went to the second floor, that was erie… I heard noises from the video. Wondering if anyone heard it.

    I've been searching for a scenic mountain trail that has minimal shelf roads. Revere Overland recommended Cinnamon Pass. So I've watched several videos on it and yours is by far the best, most scenic, and seems to capture the most of it. Well done. Thank you for your video. I might just have found a trail my wife and daughters can handle going on. My goal is to get them on one great trail and get them hooked. If you have any others to recommend I'm all ears. Keep it up and I hope you have great YouTube success!

    crazy that this was Colorado's main highways back in the 1940s.

    Can I ask about your jeep? What size tires and how much lift? Are you running bead locks? I’m wanting to do this and have a jeep very similar to yours. Doesn’t appear you have any problems driving these trails. Any other modifications you recommend? Does it still drive down the highway good? Thanks in advance for your answers

    The cabin you were looking at at 12:40 on your video is known as Rose’s cabin.

    Your video helps a lot for our coming trip plan in Aug. I have a stock Subaru Outback Wilderness. Do you think it will be able to handle this trail? Thanks

    THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING VIDEO! Me and my family are taking a trip to Colorado in 3 weeks. Is this something I can do in a Stock Jeep Wrangler or 4 Runner all the way from Silverton to Cinnamon pass to Lake City and then all the way back? Just looking for guidance because I don't want to get on anything too crazy and get me or my family hurt. I have lots of trail riding experience but I know videos never do it justice. Your reply would be extremely appreciated, thank you so much!!

    @colorado happy trails Hey who's rack system do you have on your rig for the gas can and water can? I am just oddly curious. I got a TrailRac system myself but that looks like it might be a little more customizable to put tools on etc as well. I use to live in Colorado and been on these trails before and was missing them since I have moved to Oregon. Keep the videos coming of your wheeling adventures.
