Any one near by thinking of going to Humbolt - leaving Saturday night, camp and hike Sunday?

I'm going to try to talk jmiller into going as well, but either way I'll have room in the truck for one or two more people if anyone is interested in carpooling from the Littleton area.

Hi Cruiser
I wont be able to leave town till evening time but would be interested.
let me know if that works.

Is it still 2:00 for the meet & greet @ the Pizza place?

I may drive up & have a beer, but have to hustle back for a
Father's day BBQ.

Love to meet everybody....

elkheart22,
Yep! That's the plan. I'm not sure exactly how many are meeting up; but I'd say at least 10 of us will be there.

We'd love to meet you!

I had no idea that Sunday is Father's Day until late last week...I know that makes the date terribly inconvenient for a lot of people. Sorry about that!

I was planning on meeting the group at the pizza place in Westcliffe.. I can take two people with gear up S. Colony Lakes in my Jeep. You and Skdeil might get a kiss or two from my labrador in the back seat :D but I can take you guys to the spot where we plan to hike.. Steve, I will probably have room for you as well, as long as you go semi light on the gear.. Let me know..

Vince,
That sounds perfect! Looking forward to meeting you.

del_sur,
I've got some of his favorite songs... but, this is the MOST random mix I've ever had! Keep one thing in mind for the playlist: they are songs that pertain somehow to David!

I am going to try very hard to make this climb. I have some plans that have stuck and not been agreeable to my attempts at rescheduling. Still working on it, but not looking good so far

Jamie, I'll let you know if I can go, otherwise I'll shoot for the August gathering.

Sounds good USAKeller.. I will see you guys in Westcliffe around 2 pm... Looking forward to camping and climbing with everyone. Great job organizing this Jamie.

I will be camping at the Sand Dunes this weekend. Anybody know how far it is from there to the trailhead?

A long way, it's on the other side of the range, and the Sangre de Cristos are the most effective wall in the state. You'll have to go down and over La Vita Pass and then back north... a couple hours total? Something like that. The Dunes are great, though, you'll have a blast there at any rate.

Steve,
Can't you take the Medano Pass road over from the Dunes?

stevevets689 · Post by **stevevets689** » Mon Jun 11, 2007 11:33 pm

Yeah you can but it's a jeep road... if you're camped at the dunes then it would probably get you there faster, true... maybe an hour to an hour and a half. It's a rough road.
