[@rustyharvey3481]

Such an awesome place God I love it there I’m so happy I’m not the only f250 with a truck camper going over these… you’re as crazy as me lol Yes NO SEAT BELTS

[@TruckHouseLife]

haha you know then!

[@Hiker_Mike]

When you get to the Ophir Pass sign at the top, there's a cool lake up those rocks behind the sign... it's hard to see the trail to the lake because it's all rocks. I hike up that road a couple times a year, great hike.

[@TruckHouseLife]

good to know thanks!

[@AdventuresWithPennyLane]

Coffee Bear's burritos are on point! A must have when in Silverton!

Good video Timmy 🎵🎶🎺👍

[@TruckHouseLife]

Thanks 👍

[@SwampDonkey530]

Crazy shit Timmy... yay Teluride!!!!

[@kvdme]

There are roads that literally stop on cliff edge in the San Juans looking down on the river. No turn around, barely can back down. Gotta be careful.

[@brianthegreat1-j4w]

I put MORE air in my tires when I go off road. Don't want sidewalls touching rocks.

[@TruckHouseLife]

hmmmm

[@sail4free1]

When weight isn't an issue, the combination of low-range 4WD and the low RPM torque of a 7.3 diesel is a *FORCE* to be reckoned with! Our 2000 F350 (8' bed, crew cab) has 320,000 miles and we can't imagine living without her. We've been towing a 33' 5th wheel for 6+ years now (our fulltime and offgrid house) but it only takes maybe 5 minutes to disconnect and go do some wheelin'. :)

[@beckyumphrey2626]

We have a 99 250 7.3 we bought new. 180k miles and immaculate. In 4wd low she is a beast. Love that 7.3.

[@TruckHouseLife]

Right?!

[@johnsimpson8198]

Your right Timmy, Coffee Bear is the Bomb, my son and I were there in July, love those pressed burritos, stay safe my friend!

[@Trevor_Knapp]

These videos should be 30+ mins long! Absolutely love your videos, routine viewer! Keep up the great work, and maybe make them longer?😎

[@TruckHouseLife]

Thanks man haha.

[@giterdone9013]

Another great journey and your cinematography and framing of you shots is perfect. Please, do NOT apologize for no drone. That splash of green kayak against the blue sky and Blue against the orange and green below, chef’s kiss my friend. I’m glad you advised against the opposite direction. That must be why you only passed a dirt bike and an SUV going the opposite way, lol. And agree, there was one switchback on that other trail I felt like I needed a seatbelt too, lol.

[@TruckHouseLife]

Thanks! Got some fun offroad videos coming up soon:)

[@CTMadModz]

Sketchy dude.... can’t wait for you to get back to Alaska so we can do some wheelin 🤘🤩

[@TruckHouseLife]

Can't wait man! Have to get some episodes sending it whistlindiesel style lol, lined up a new bumper, snorkel and some new tires, still got some stuff to do to it but it's gonna be pretty solid! This is all your effin fault by the way.

[@vangilanteryan713]

Too cool! Making me want a 4x4 setup. but i do not want the running cost. ha.

[@giterdone9013]

You still see those old Samurais and Sidekicks running, just start small, lol.

Gotta love the 2 seconds of Hank III

I visit Telluride twice a year, we stay in Cortez, SW down the mountain. I love that corner of CO most!!!

[@sandrabehrle-liebsher4805]

Yes, great coffee there! Love T-ride!!

[@sail4free1]

We have manual front hubs and manual transfer case too -- only way to go IMHO! :)

[@TruckHouseLife]

will do!

[@paullydca]

beautiful area! thanks for sharing it with us.

[@bethseptember8]

When I rode with a friend on this trail, my knee went out and he was a newbie, we were on the talus slope. I had my head out and made sure he was away from edge. Kinda sketchy. Anyway, at bottom was a wreck that came to rest half way over. Anyway, Ron saw the glint of metal. "Beth, is that a wreck down there?" "Ron, there is a need to know and a right to know. You don't have either right now. Just keep it steady and straight. Low and slow buddy" He has never forgotten that. Love Colorado. But, in my TJ RUBI

[@TruckHouseLife]

ouch!

easily becoming my favorite KZbinr! keep it up are living the life!

Right on thanks man!

The first uneventful video in this series. Rock on !

[@TruckHouseLife]

Right?! lol

[@peterstubbs8587]

I'm building out my truck for overlanding, and this trail looks like something I NEED to do!

[@TruckHouseLife]

Do it!

[@rilyb15]

Same mentality with no seatbelt on ice 👍🏼

[@TruckHouseLife]

haha

[@reellife5082]

I love the shots of the bed flexing opposite of the cab🤘that's how you know it's aggressive.

[@mikerobbins5049]

We did it one year in the other direction with 8 in of snow. We were in a full sized 4 door pick up but no camper on the back. I like Ophir Pass in either direction. I’ve seen some stock crossover vehicles

[@redfoot69]

I drove on paved road similar to your down switchback; in north western Idaho; was worried going off that cliff

[@TruckHouseLife]

nice haha

[@guylongley1573]

That was frickin awesome! Go Timmy!!👍👍😁😁

[@harryfatcat]

Very cool! New subscriber here. I've seen an article about this truck before somewhere. Look close, that white van is 2wd!

Yes, handlebars is the goods..

[@gaynel618]

Years ago I rode the old Durango- Silverton train along the Animas River. All I can say about your drive over that pass is WOW. That's all, just WOW. Oh, and sorry about the demise of the drone.

[@panchoadelo]

I just happened to come across one of your return to Alaska videos and I recognized your rig. I was patiently for you to make your way past the super exposed portion of Ophir before I made my ascent.

[@TruckHouseLife]

Haha nice man! Small world!

[@regconrad7783]

100% right no seat belt we used to truck on some wicked hills she was seat belt off and door unlatched was your only roll at the dice my friend even if you survived the roll over amd crash either fire or sour gas from the fluids we hauled would get a person we were professionally trained grew up in the North no one I knew had an incident trucking Legends in our own minds lol awesome video keep them coming

[@TruckHouseLife]

whoa

[@mtnbound2764]

Sick man, looked way easier than engineers!

just wish your video was longer. I really enjoy your content alot! cheers

Got some longer ones eventually;)

[@TheHankerchief26]

Welp, you might as well try for the granddaddy badass trail in that area: Black Bear Road! Like C.W. McCall said, "You don't have to be crazy to drive this road, but it helps!"

[@TruckHouseLife]

No thanks haha.

Its funny how much for frames wiggle they don't break though just flex it would've been cool if you had a 3/4 ton or 1 ton van with 4x4 and diesel you made me get bubble guts a few times on this ride great job

[@TruckHouseLife]

yup pretty crazy for sure!

Just amazing bro come to Patagonia 🤟

[@TruckHouseLife]

one day!

[@HarryGreen333]

txs for your posts. wish: (understanding that solo filming isn't easy), wish you'd show the actual hard parts (eg, in this video, you skipped the 180º switchback w-6ft off camber ledge - that's what would be interesting, and informational to know whether a given rig could make it).

[@TruckHouseLife]

Wouldn't you know my freaking GoPro died while I was driving that Switchback LOL it happened on engineer pass to on the hardest part freaking GoPro died in the middle of me driving the Switchback just have bad luck

@@TruckHouseLife ha...!! Yeah, I kept putting grease on them, WD-40, too, and into the new bushings - it's pretty much over with now - many months later...

[@XC797]

I like your 4×4 and your home away from home . Mini home on the moving range. Have you ever considered going with a camper that has a traditional shape for aerodynamic and going down or up the 4×4 trails. I like your home away from home but for tight fit roads and trails the utility of having a camper shape rather than a house shape would help getting around the back roads . You're the expert so don't take my comment as being critical because I still think you have a cool rig.

[@YahshuaLovesMe]

I could have taken that with my TR3 easy. Longas a boulder didn't hit me on the head... one couldhave, up waldo grade, had to pass a big one in my lane, big as your truck, that is when I decided maybe I should sell it, that was a mistake too...

Did you know there's 2 small mountain lakes at the top of ophir pass there's a small hike to then but there on on the right and left

[@Makena61]

I did this pass in the wife's Honda CRV this past fall. That drop was in rough condition then, looked a bit cleaner. I was worried when I saw the video, it's pretty off-camber. haha
