60Patrol

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

All,

With your advice, parts and psychotherapy.....I will attempt a solo 12,800 ascent of Engineer's Pass, CO wednesday weather permitting.

Command and Control Vehicle 7 seems to be running very well and trips to 11,000 have been effortless.

I will turn around if it is not working. No need to to press a bad hand. Weather, road and traffic are perfect. It is nothing more than my high altitude driving skills and carburetion.

More to follow,

David, we will be looking forward to your report of a successful trip! Be safe.

Greetings Patrol World.

Just a few notes from Lake City, CO. CCV7 performed perfectly on a 1 hr climb from 8700' to 12,000'.

Onto 12,800 tommorow.

Great, David.

The pictures are beautiful. Glad to hear about the performance!

You should be proud. It took a lot of diligence to get there. Awesome trip.

Paradise Found!

In 2016 we all started the rebuild of the Green Machine.

The season is over, the trains of Jeeps gone. I had finally space to recover from a bad situation so the ascent of Engineer's Pass was at hand.

The very rough 20 mile climb through 14 major landslides and 4 dramatic switchbacks rumbled under tire effortlessly. The motor never broke cadence which kept my wife supportive throughout.

Yesterday's climb was much more aggressive so I knew all systems were finally a go. That heater sure came in handy.

Thank you for all your support, parts and prayers. These type treks require fully operational equipment. I'll feel even better once Rene upgrades my brake Master this winter.

Patrolling in Paradise,

thanks for sharing great pics.

Great pictures and description of your journey.

You definitely have a way with words that keep us all very entertained.

Thanks

Very very cool.
