I called the CC ranger district today https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/arp/recreation/?cid=stelprdb5292500 to see what the delay was with Kingston Peak opening this year, and the person who answered the phone told me that the Ranger told her it was open, she was sure of it, just the website hasnt been updated yet. The Ranger is back in the office tomorrow so I'm going to call back and confirm.

So maybe Saturday...?

Trails off-road shows gates open and run on the 23rd. Saturday maybe - Sunday AM or Friday?

Think I'm going to save it for a weekday when it's quiet and do the James Peak Lakes hike too. It's probably going to be full of ATVs this weekend anyway.

and do the James Peak Lakes hike too.

You'll likely plan for it - but we weren't prepared at Bill Moore Lake..... THE MOSQUITOES

:lmao: That only happened to me once before I learned, now I have a big bottle of Deep Woods Off in my Jeep and a small one in my backpack, got to use it at Coney Flats already this year.
