Colorado Colors '10

[RallyDude]

I think we're going to be late with fall colors in the mountains. It's either peaking or already past peak in most mountain areas. I don't want to spoil everyone's parade, I just want to let you know. Southern mountains will be last, but I doubt we want to go that far.

I live in Idaho Springs if someone wants to pick me up, as my VX probably won't be ready yet. Actually we could meet here if you want, close to Denver, but still in the moutains, and I know of a lot of good trails around here. I guess it matters how much highway or how much wheelin' everyone wants to do. I've got the CO Gazetter and we could even probably wait till that date to determine our best route, dependent on conditions. Everyone's welcome to grill out here, or I know of picnic area that's real close in a grove of aspens.

It would still be a nice ride and if winds stay low, we should be able to get some late season action, probably better at lower elevations. Rather than the 13th, I might suggest this coming weekend if we want to see the colors still attached to the trees.

Dang RallyDude, I never realized Idaho Springs was so close to Denver....I'll be on 70 Westbound passing thru there Thursday 10/21, sometime around lunchtime. If ya want to meet for a quick "meet & greet" just let me know!
