Ok, well maybe we should do something more than Big John Mountain then, it’s pretty short although the snow might make it a little fun. I guess we could run Bunce and maybe Ironclads after Big John.

Big John Mountain? Near Allenspark? Hitting TrailsOffroad - is this what I know as Dry St. Vrain?

Yes Dry Saint Vrain. We could meet right on the side of the road before the turnoff.

This might be the last run for a while. Unless I decide to do a shake-down run after I install my drop brackets.

Jim

I'll bring my set of chains - for use or to lend.

Cool. Do you want to meet at 930?

Jim
February 9th, 2019, 10:20 PM
I could meet anytime. I'm fine with waiting for Matt to see what's good for him. Your call.

For the folks coming via Lyons - meet at Sandstone Park or just go to the roadside spot?

Sandstone to the turn off Matt listed, via my GPS tracks, shows 18 minutes.

I say we meet at 10 at sandstone park in Lyons. If this works for people please respond and say so. If it does ill make it official and post a new trail run by like 8 or 830. I just need to know when i need to start heading north :)

I’m in, but since I live up near the trail I’ll meet you guys at the meeting spot near trailhead at around 10:30-ish

So Big John Mountain is easy and short but doesn’t see much traffic so hopefully it’s snowy.... I will have my chains also but don’t think they’ll be needed. If we fly thru Big John Mountain (and we most likely will) we can run a couple miles up the hill to Bunce and Ironclads. These will certainly have traffic (atv’s, side by sides and other 4x4’s) but Im curious how the conditions are! Last time I ran it was a month ago and it was very icy & I couldn’t make the Ironclads loop and also was turned back on Bunce by an icy hill...... I have my chains with v-bars just for this kind of stuff ;)
