Cheers,

Jim

I had a similar question. Was wondering if there was a group planning to depart from Golden or Morrison on Friday.

OK, you're coming thru my back yard.  Want to meet at Rudy's again? Corner of US 24 and 31st Street.

Jim,

That will work. I may have to change my departure time as my truck is in the shop having hail damage repaired. I will know more tomorrow and will let you know if anything changes.

That's 15 minutes from my house so as long as the sun is up, just tell me what time. 

Cheers,

Jim

Cpt Bob,
Are you going to stop for lunch at the usual place in Poncha Springs? I think it's called Hunger Shack now.

Tomas,

I was thinking about doing lunch there. It has been a few years since I been through Poncha Springs and at least this place looks to be open.

For everyone going over Cottonwood Pass be aware that the Low Line Fire burning in Gunnison County, roughly 14 miles northwest of Gunnison and 11 miles southwest of Crested Butte. See details with the below link.
