Upcoming Colorado Events

Hmmm I'll probably be there.

 

Not sure if anyone else has shared this

 

What time are you folks planning on getting to Rokmen today?

 

Probably close to 11 for us

 

Just booked a cheap hotel in downtown Frisco (since I don't have adequate gear for winter camping ) to make the drive out to the meeting spot in the morning a little less shitty. It's a room with 2 double beds if anyone is interested in a spot to stay Friday night.

 

Input for grub? Is everyone bringing they're own stuff or grill hot dogs and burgers? I have my two burner stove but would need s griddle if we're planning on grilling... And we'd need to set up a quick list of what people want to bring.


8:30amline up, 8:45am roll out
Meeting location will be the corner of CR-5 and 285 where there is a large open parking area that will be impossible to miss. 39.153701,-105.999760.
If you're late, drive up Weston Pass and you'll find us stuck in the snow somewhere.


Weston Pass Send It Run

Saturday Nov 17
The masses have spoken and looks to be the most popular, so that'll be the date.


@CO MTN Steve requested a run in remembrance of the shitstorm that transpired late last year.


We will be snow bashing up Weston Pass from the east side with bbq wherever we get stuck. Might be no snow might be tons, should be a good time. It's not technical. Family friendly, plenty of scenery, bring sleds for the kids. Also, bring snow gear. No matter what, it is pretty much guaranteed to be windy.


1. @Stig - any dates work
2. @YamaDirtrider
3. @CharlieCafe - Most likely if it's on a Saturday. I'll bring the blow torch since candles are not allowed
4. @CO MTN Steve Can't Miss Event! Maybe we should meet at your bare ground with a couple of probably dead Aspens
5. @Kappes03 - Either Sat is best
6. @johntoyota any date is fine at the moment but subject to change
7. @TomTomBikes - FIRST GROUP RUN! any date works for me.
8. @In4aride - either date pending knee work.
9. @10tacotrooper - either date works
10. @Ripcord - Either date works
11. @huzer - Either date works, pending hockey schedule.
12. @tacomaco90- Saturdays are best
13. @mcgov303 - Sat the 17th is best
14. @lambo - any day
15. @bot102 - Any day, pending if the lady friend wants to come out!

Maybe:
@Wulf Need to iron out a few more things on the truck probably going to try and camp somewhere close the night before.

Meetup time added.. Should be a little later to help with drive time but also get in wheeling before lunch on trail.

Bring snow attire since it'll likely be deep.

 

So other than thick jackets and stuff, can we define snow gear?

 

Didn't you do cold weather survival in the Military? Pretty much plan for the worst, hope for the best

 

Anyone camping Saturday night?

 

Yeah it was about -40°F when I was at the DMZ. We layered up and spooned each other, but something tells me we all won't be spooning to stay warm

Recommend a specific one from them?

 

Make your buddy smile!

 

Which DMZ? We saw -40F in northern Alaska.. ain't no joke

 

SK/NK. Were up there training ROK Marines.

 

-40... does it even get that cold there? Coldest I saw was in the teens

 

Oh yeah. Ambient was like -15 or so, throw in a 20Kt wind and "real feel" was -40. We were there back end of November to mid January

 

You've never been to a Tacoma world meat, I mean meet.

 

It's like being back at engineering school where the ratio of men:women was 10:1 lmao
