[jonbaker]

i was thinking we could drive either 67 or 83 from denver down to the springs. so we would leave here around 4pm.. or so..

i've never driven that road might have to take the rabbit up it one day

[fotograf]

Just a headsup, the last 8 or so miles after Sprucewood of 67 is a steep narrow dirt road. It's still fun, but can be very brutal if it's snowed recently.

[jonbaker]

well we do not want to go off roading.. thanks for the heads up..

[scurvy_bandit]

We did a drive last fall... well I guess in 07. Ask kutark (Lance) what the route was. It was a nice drive and there weren't any dirt roads.

[RSR32]

glad you metro guys will be down here....

but may 2nd is FARRRR away...well it seems like it.

[scurvy_bandit]

its only 5 weeks... not too far off.   


Actually I was thinking about trying to get a spring "thaw out" GTG up anyway. Something in April that we could all meet up.
