PB changed their TOS a month or so back, so unless you are paying the $400 a year price, they don't allow what they call 3rd party hosting. The only image we can see is the one you attached...all the rest show PB please upgrade your account splash image.
 
What other trails do you plan to do? I would for sure do Imogene Pass and Black Bear Pass. Both can be done in a stock Runner if you just take your time and pick your path. I was up there in June and I went back again just a couple of weeks ago. I love it up there. Going to try to go back again mid-late September and catch the color change. Corkscrew Gulch is another great trail. I wasn't that impressed with Engineer after doing Imogene and Black Bear. Also, the first 1-2 miles up to Engineer off of Hwy 550 is a rough SOB.

Same here. ^^

Unfortunately, I was also a PB user and had some threads basically destroyed because of them. I've since switched to Smugmug and really like it as it works on everything and isn't crammed with ads or pop ups. I've just finished ( I think) restoring my 5th gen build thread and I'm still working on my 4th gen thread. I still have a bunch of other threads in other forums that will have to be restored as well ( if ever really). Personally, I hope PB goes bankrupt over this little cash grab and is nothing but a bad memory in a few years.

Heya Presa, Yea I've done most all of them here. Been coming here for about 10yrs. I've previously had a FJ fairly built up and have done FJ Summit about half a dozen times. Come here every summer. I love this place!

Isn't Clear Lake closer to Silverton than Ouray? Was just up there last week, also went to the end of Bandora Mine Rd. (shown below in one of your pics). Solo-camped there 25 years ago, only person in the entire valley.
 
[MENTION=165729]Gunnar44[/MENTION] how long will you be up there? I'm leaving FW tomorrow morning for Denver, and then headed to Ouray/Telluride/Lake City on Thursday for some trails.
