Holy Cross September 13th
Looking at putting together a Holy Cross run on September 13th this year. Had a great Bronco turn out last year and looking to see if anyone wants to join up for a great trail run.
I will be camping once again along the road up to Holy Cross, will probably head up on Thursday afternoon or early Friday morning on the 12th. Post up if your interested!
I am a bit flexible on dates, so if this weekend doesnt' work we could move it a week in the future..

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I'm interested.
Do you think my rig is capable of doing Holy Cross ?

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
Landshark,
I didn't read the details thoroughly enough.
What time do you plan to hit the trail on Saturday morning ?
I would be planning to come up on Saturday morning and probably head home that afternoon / evening.

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I might be interested...weather dependent, of course. It can get a little chilly with no doors!

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I'm going to join this run as long as I can find a sitter for my youngling (or he may cut his teeth on this trail???). I will also be driving up Sat. morning and home afterwards.

Holy Cross September 13th
I'm still planning on this. Weather looks good but could change as we all know. I plan on camping fri night and perhaps sat but can play it by ear. For those that want to head up sat let me know and we will set a time that's good for you.
There's no cell service there but we can just meet at the trail head which is hard to miss.
Let me know!

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I'm still "in like Flynn" and will be coming up Saturday morning.
It looks like it will take me about 2 hours +/- to get to the trail head from my house.
If anyone else is coming up Saturday morning, we could meet up and caravan to the trail head.
Landshark, what time should we meet up ?

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I'm still in at this point. It looks like it may be cooler in Denver/ along Front Range on Friday than in the hills. If the forecast changes to anything cooler/wetter, I may have to bow out. I don't mind camping in the cold, it's the drive that gets chilly for me!
I was planning on heading up Friday after work (would probably be warmer than Saturday AM). I've got to be in Silverthorne on Sunday morning, so I was planning on camping on Saturday night as well. But if no one else is going to, I'll figure something else out.

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I'm seeing if I can come up Friday night (so is Mike my co-pilot) thinking we can hit the trail earlier as I have a wedding I need to try to get back for on Saturday afternoon

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I am planning on coming. I have a sitter lined up for Saturday. I probably will still drive up Sat. Morning, just tell me what time and I will meet you guys there, either at your camp or on the trail.

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
My attendance is in jeopardy, unless I can fix my rear diff in time.

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
Understand. Hope you can find a rear.
Looking at the weather it still looks good. If you want to check try red cliff or aspen.

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
Landshark -
What time are you planning on leaving tomorrow? I'll probably be stuck at the office until 3. I just need to gas up and get ice and I can be on the road.
Also, do I need to bring any firewood? I've got one of those bundles you get from the store sitting in my garage.
Let me know.

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
Have fun! All this talk if chilly weather, off-roading, and campfires has given me an itch I need to scratch (insert inappropriate Shawn Gregg joke). I plan to do a lot more of this next year assuming Orenthal James is put back together!

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I am recovering from a pretty serious cold so I won't be doing any manly camping this time around.
Mike and I have opted for the opulence that can only be found at the Super 8 in Leadville.
We can meet you guys at the trailhead (or wherever) at whatever time (name it, we'll be there)

Re: Holy Cross September 13th
I plan on leaving Denver at 3:30pm - will be camping somewhere along homestake road but will try to camp on the location above or across the road near the creek. Its a popular area so if neither of those work you will have to find me or meet at the trail head at 8:30am.
I am obviously driving the Red 69 with the black softtop
