Lost again
My 30 YO son recently told me he wants to get into Overland travel and asked Terri and I to take him and his wife (Sam) somewhere where she could gently be exposed to this mode of travel.
Our tentative plan is for Terri and I to drive to Durango and meet them. We would then go to Silverton where we would rent them a Jeep from Faradays (sp?) and spend a couple of days slowly doing the loop, perhaps staying in Lake City. We would then go back to Durango and rent another type of vehicle for them and we would explore Mesa Verde and the surrounding area as Sam is very interested in older civilizations...
My first question is would my F-350 with my camper be able to do the loop or should I rent a Jeep as well?
Are there better options that I haven't thought about?
My son is very accustomed to adverse camping having spent a considerable amount of time in the "Sandbox". Sam completed the Spartan Race last year when Evan was on one of his deployments so she's no slouch either...but most of her worldly travel has involved hotels etc.
Thanks.
