Run White Ranch
Details
For Saturday we will be heading down towards Golden to run the White Ranch loop.
ROUTE
We'll stick to the trails along the outside edge of the park, which will give us a little over 13 miles, 2700 ft gain, in around 4 hours. We'll plan to do it in a counterclockwise direction. We'll start from the East trailhead, which is the lowest point, so the first half will be our climb and the second half our descent.
Anyone wanting a shorter distance can turn back at any time. Alternatively, there are numerous cut-through trails to do shorter loops.
CARPOOL
The carpool spot will be at the Park'n Ride at the NE corner of Hwy 93 and 170/Eldorado Springs Dr. south of Boulder at 8:00a.
The run will start at the White Ranch Park East Trailhead (21827 West 56th Avenue, Golden CO, 80403) at 8:30a.
CONSIDERATIONS
Breakfast can be either in Golden or Boulder. We can decide on the run, so we should coordinate carpools based on who needs to be back early, or who may want to have breakfast in Golden.
Dogs are allowed, but must be leashed.
Let us know in the comments if you intend to meet us at the carpool or the trailhead. If you need a ride to the carpool spot, add a comment to see if someone can assist.
