Ex,
Because I have to pick up my brother and niece in Tulsa I am going to be leaving Tulsa on the 5th (Sun) driving to and overnighting in Canon City that night. Royal Gorge touristing with the munchkin and then over to Lake City to camp on the 6th.
IIRC, the TTR/LSLC group leaving DFW on Saturday is overnighting in Tucumcari, NM on the 4th. Silverton on the 5th. Then coming North out of Silverton on the Alpine loop (Cinammon Pass) to Lake City and then west to Ouray via Engineer Pass. Since they plan to poke along all the ghost towns and side trials, camping along the way I plan to intercept them, with a little luck, between Lake City and Silverton on the 7th. Likely come off the Alpine Loop on Weds and then head north out of Ouray.
After Ouray the group plans to overnight at Ridgeway State Park, north of Ouray and run Ophir, Imogene and Black bear. Coming out on the 10th or 11th I am going to lead anyone that wants to tag along on the Stony pass route overland from just north of Silverton to Creede and then ??? I thought about the RS Rally or who knows. I might whoa up another day at the Rio Grande Reservoir before heading back to Tulsa.
Hope to see you on the trail
Chris
