Blog

Today we merge our two websites together.  For those that know me, knew that I ran Henry S. Estes Photography HSEstesPhotography.com where I posted much of my photography work.  New post will happen here on www.WanderOffroad.com website and blog.  We have added a new page (which links offsite) to our www.WanderOffroad.photography website.  You’ll still see the same great photography you have come to know and love from me, as we repost and revisit some of the existing content I had on the other site, along with new videos and stories of our travels.

Please stay connected, as we have many more journeys to take and share with you.

Yesterday we hit up Talladega National Forest. We did an impromptu ride over to Alabama to ride some of the roads through the National Forest. We didn’t make it all the way through. We started on the south end and ended at Mount Cheaha.

Sorry it has been a little bit since the last post. Things have been busy around here at homebase. We have alot to share in due time.  But for now, here is the first video in a series of the trails we hit while in Ouray Colorado. Stay tuned for more to come….

Internet service has been hit or miss here in the high country. I'll get everyone caught up on the adventures once we get back to home base.

Tomorrow we head out for Colorado. The Jeep is tuned and torqued, our gear is staged for loading, our bags are packed, and camera gear ready. Our itinerary starts bright and early tomorrow for a two day ride to Ouray.

Keep watching for daily updates, photos and videos!!

This was shot in May 2016 when we visited Moab. Onion Creek Trail is a 11.5 mile moderately trafficked trail that features a river, a few creek crossings and is rated as moderate.  The route meanders from Onion Creek up one of several drainages to the edges of Fisher Towers.  It’s condition can be graded smooth dirt to 4×4 bumpy depending upon recent storms and flooding. The trail itself offers some dusty dirt sections, then some slick rock with small shelves adding some challenges. Drainage off the mesa top above add constant changes at their crossings.  Onion Creek trail then leads on to Rose Garden Hill which is rated 7/10

 

In less than 10 days we strike out for Colorado.  This isn’t our first trip to Colorado, but it will be like none of the other past trips.  We are driving The Tank out along with several of our other friends to Ouray,  known as “The Jeeping Capital of the World.”  There we’ll spend about five days hitting the trails, sight seeing, and enjoying some time away from work :-).

Please keep up with our adventures as we will try to post a video or photo daily!
