This is the infamous Punch Bowl Cut. The jeeps are at 'Slab Turn'. Built in 1883 as a wagon route between mining towns Marble and Crested Butte, much of the road through this section is blasted into the solid rock. Before the path was blasted, coaches, wagons, horses, and supplies were lowered/hoisted and reassembled for the next leg of the journey. I must admit that the night before the upcoming journey through Schofield Pass, my mind wanders to the uneasiness of my gut feelings.

Hi tmay245. I was looking for 4x4 tires related information and came across your blog. Very good reading! I have a 4x4 tires site. You'll find info on atv tires as well as most major brands of vehicle tires such as Michelin, Goodyear, BF Goodrich, Cooper and more. With winter here, you can also get winter tire and tire chain recommendations for your vehicle. Check it out when you can :)
If you have a site similar to mine and would like to exchange links, please contact me through my website.
