The Colorado Backcountry Discovery Route (COBDR), created by ADV motorcyclists, runs 675 miles from the Wyoming border, across Colorado to Four Corners. Crossing a wide variety of terrain, the COBDR challenges the traveler with mostly unpaved roads, some rugged trails, sandy stretches, multiple water crossings and high mountain passes. The views are plentiful and dramatic, though the weather may add to the drama. Four friends from Oregon, Washington, Oklahoma and Colorado accepted the challenge of this incredible route in their overlanding rigs. Meeting just across the border in Baggs, Wyoming, we headed out intent on completing as much of the route as possible in six full days of travel. The day 3 video covers the trip between a dispersed campsite in the White River National Forest near Gypsum and the Pike National Forest near Leadville, and includes crossing Hagerman Pass.
