What we’re about
Our main goal/ mission is to explore as many wonderful hikes/ snowshoe trails, snowboarding, skiing, hut trips, camping, backpacking, spelunking, canyoneering, etc.,as well as general socializing, restaurants/pubs/taverns as possible in a safe and responsible manner, so that members can get a greater sense of all that Colorado has to offer and enjoy. Some of these we have experienced before, but many will be new to us as well.
Come join us!

Dogs: No - I got a permit to take 12 and a dog counts the same as a human.We are taking the shuttle from Nederland High School. Parking is extremely tight at Hessie Trailhead. The shuttle runs every 15 mins and is free.
Do to the large number of late cancels and no shows I'm putting everyone on the wait list and will be selecting reliable members.
Carpools:
Boulder: meet on the south side of 6th at Pearl at 7:30, leaving at 7:40 sharp. Turn right on 9th from canyon, left on Pearl, then left on 6th..Denver: I'd suggest the parking lot at 93 and 72, then take Coal Creek Canyon to Peak to Peak (Highway 119), turn left, then follow the directions above.
