FJ Summit 9 - Ouray, Colorado

The FJ Summit is an annual gathering of enthusiastic off-road Toyota 4x4 owners and primarily fans of the FJ Cruiser. The event provides the opportunity to meet with other wheelers, have a great time together, and meet with many of the vendors that help support our passion for off-roading.

Held each year for past 9 years in Ouray, Colorado, this years event brought in a total of 341 Vehicles, with the overall majority of them being FJ Cruisers and 923 visitors in attendance for this years events.


Signing up for this event includes three dinners that are provided to attendees by sponsors and three days of trail runs for groups of 10 vehicles at a time through some really amazing mountain passes. The nice thing about this event is a totally stock FJ Cruiser can make it through almost every one of these trails. You don't have to come out with lots of modifications to enjoy this Summit.

The final night brings everyone together for some good food and a chance to visit with the various vendors one more time and ask any last questions about their products and services that they offer. Then we all gather under the main tent for one of the largest off-road raffles ever put together. Prizes run from the smaller items like a CB radio setup for your ride and then all the way up to the massive off-roading bumpers and all things between.

Then everyone retires for the night and wakes up bright an early the next morning for the final group photo, to mark the conclusion of the FJ Summit. FJ Cruisers line up and take over Main Street for a huge group shot and say so long until the next years event. If you go just once to experience the FJ Summit, you'll want to come back again. I guarantee you will.


See you all in 2016 for FJ Summit #10 and thanks for the great memories.
