Trails and Ales

Since the skiing isn’t in yet, let’s climb!

Easy to moderate trad.

Must have outdoor experience and know how to lead belay for outdoors rad routes

Wind tower or west ridge is what I’m thinking

Let’s meet at the Dynomart parking, NW corner of Hwy 93 and Eldorado Canyon Rd. We can sort gear and carpool in

We will meet at the covered gazebo to do a quick circle of introductions and have a leisurely social hike to catch up on our week and meet some new friends along with old friends on a weekly basis!!!

Popular trail offering views of Denver, the Front Range and wildlife. Bluffs Regional Park Trail is a 2.8 mile loop trail located in Lone Tree that features beautiful wild flowers and is good for all skill levels. Two overlooks add about a half-mile each. Minimal elevation gain. Dog friendly, on-leash.

We can go longer than the 2.8 miles to visit Lonehenge, aka the stone benches, which adds about 1.6 miles to the hike.

Hopefully we’ll catch an amazing sunset!!

Afterwards, we’ll head over to Clock Tower Grill. They have a great happy hour food/drink menu until 7 pm. Nice covered/heated patio. We celebrate birthdays! Let us know, and we’ll get a slice of their awesome Oreo Ice Cream Cake to share!

In the interest of keeping things equitable and the group size manageable, along with minimizing our impact to other trail users, I ask for your consideration of the following. Thank you.

Please RSVP only if you intend to come. If your plans change, please update your RSVP in a timely manner so that someone on the waitlist can join.

If you are on the waitlist, please do not show up anyway, hoping a spot opens up. Please feel free to meet us at CTG instead, posting a comment as such, so we know how many to plan for.

No guest RSVPs. All attendees are to RSVP with their own Meetup account.

We do this hike every Monday year-round, so there’s plenty of opportunity to join in the fun!! 😃

FYI, movie 🎬 times vary based on location that has the earliest show time during the week, and Tuesdays & now Wednesdays are discounted everywhere. 😁

As usual, about 25ish minutes of previews, so you can get there a bit later if needed.

FYI 3D movies will always be at AMC, as Alamo only has 2D and the week after opening.
We will eventually transition to Tuesday Movies at the Alamo for $7 & now Wednesday movies at AMC for $11 plus service fee.
Zelle me if you want to avoid the service fee.
Locations vary between Littleton Alamo, AMC Highlands Ranch, AMC Arapahoe Crossings 16 in Aurora and sometimes Castle Rock AMC.

We hope to see you there 😉
