    Yep!

    It’s actually Colorado Fasteners and Metric :D I’d much rather support a local shop like them than try to deal with Fastenal, McMaster, Ace, etc.

    As an aside, I lived in Gunnison for a while back in the day and still miss that area. Hartman’s especially.

    Ah! The shop I work at is just across that river to the South. We end up going there 2 or 3 times a week.
    Awesome! I love Gunnison but it's nice to live there most of the year but also come back to Longmont for the summer. But Hartman's is one of my favorite places in Colorado.

    I wish! I miss it like crazy, but my lady and I will be heading out for a few days in October, which will be awesome.

    It’s definitely better if you have another vehicle as backup, but sometimes that isn’t in the cards. But with the holiday weekend going on, there will be plenty of people out on the trails. Do you know which ones you’re running?

    Regardless, you guys will have a blast! Not only do you get to enjoy Moab, but you’ll get to enjoy the drive over the mountains too. I’m not sure if you’ve driven I-70 from Denver heading west, but if you haven’t, you’re in for some great views. Just watch out for the crazy Labor Day traffic!

    Yeah I wonder what Moab is like during Labor Day. Part of the reason I decided to go in mid-September. Avoid the Labor Day stuff but still enjoy the moderate weather that time of year.

    I think mid-September to mid-October is just about perfect. I wish we were going a little earlier, but those were the only dates that my lady could get off of work. Still stoked as hell to get out there, though!

    We start the drive from NC tomorrow. It’s going to take 5 days to get out there. Hopefully the holiday folks have cleared out by that time.

    I think late October is still good no? That's when Rock Therapy was and I loved the temps. Jelly you are going back to Moab!

    Hell yeah, you’ll be golden! What are you planning to check out once you get there?
    It’s gonna be good, man. Hopefully the weather holds. I just need to narrow down where we want to go, which is damn near impossible. So much to see out there!
