    Im just east of Boulder if you still need a hose.

    there’s also a coin-op pressure washer right at the base of Boulder Canyon (Canyon and 3rd) which is directly below Ned.

    Thank you! That's the area we are at currently. Hoping to find a garden hose rather a pressure washer to avoid any damage to the fins

    Pressure washer won't hurt a radiator. I sprayed the one on my bike the other day and didn't give it a second thought.
    I don't think city pressure would be enough to force mud out after it's had time to bake in there.

    Plus if you don’t pull the trigger on the wand, the pressure coming out is similar to a garden hose with a sprayer attached.

    HUGE Thank You to @teamhypoxia for allowing us to use his house and garden hose. You probably save @SR-71A ‘s and my trip!


    I hope I didn’t leave too much New England silt behind in your driveway? But My truck is running MUCH BETTER!

    Glad it's working for you :thumbsup:

    I didn't know this thread existed. Do I qualify for "Northern Colorado" or would I have to be up there at the fort with Andy and the old man Brett?

    If you have to ask....
    I like to think of it being a state of mind independent of current location. We tend to appreciate the finer things in life like not Denver. No qualifying factors that I'm aware of.

    Well, I'd go further than "not Denver"
    How about "not a city"?

    Does anyone in Northern Colorado have an Ovrlnd camper and be willing to do a meetup to check it out? Happy to buy some beer and lunch for your time. I think their campers fit my needs and I'd like to put in a deposit this winter to have one ready for next spring, but I'm a little reluctant to pull the trigger without seeing one in person.

    Also if anyone has any positive or negative feedback on their campers I'm all ears.

    Anyone in NoCo have a solid concrete guy? Looking to extend our patio a bit more. About 250 sq ft, just brushed, nothing fancy. Shoot me a message / TIA.

    Anyone drive through the mud puddle on old flowers road lately? Went today and it's a little gnarly. I was alone and didn't want to risk getting stuck, I think I could have made it but didn't want to be stranded. I waited for a half hour or so but no one came by. I would have done it if someone was there to pull me out

    Yeah it’s not bad at all. Walked right through it both directions Saturday/Sunday in my GFs GX470 on street tires, so if you get back out there don’t sweat the puddle

    Damn! I should have gone! I had my wife and dogs with me so I thought it wasn't worth the risk to get stuck. I was surprised no one came along after waiting a while. Maybe I'll go tomorrow, thanks for the info

    You bet! Apparently after cleaning the mud off we did crack a running board, so do you have steps or something, the west side of it might take them out. Now she’s gonna wake me to make her some rock sliders. I did this to myself lol

    I have the factory steps but want to get sliders. I've got a buddy to go with me tomorrow, probably will be at trailhead around 2 if you want to come. It might be really bad after this storm tonight
