More jeeping, no surprise I'm sure. We did the second half of the Alpine Loop over Cinnamon Pass this time. Very beautiful as well, rougher road, the Rock performed like a charm, and we ended up back in Silverton for lunch. The rain had already been on the loop - lots of big puddles and washout on the main road and overcast, but the rain held out until we got home. Our favorite is Engineer pass (see prior post) but its all great and well worth the trip.

In the interim, we went on another jeep trip, really a road trip over Marshall Pass (towards Monarch) an area we had wanted to explore. Pretty, nothing spectacular, but,boy do I have a recommendation for RV camping. O'Haver Lake. Closed for a year for renovations, owned by U.S. Forest service, looked great.
Only a few days before big trips away to Alaska and Seattle. I'll be back with a post before then...
