Ouray Weekend - Aug 3-5th

[jonharis]

So, I am up here in silverton and have no direct way to get a hold of any one attending to meet up and run a trail or two with the group! If any one can pm me or email me directly to join up it would be greatly appreciated! - Ben

We only have Internet access, email up here. No cell service. We will be on the road around 9am from the Eureka Lodge (directions are in this thread and in emails) planning on heading up valley ultimately ending up at Animas Forks, Placer gulch, California gulch, etc.

I have reluctantly decided to pass on this trip. I have been bouncing around on rocks for most of the past three rocks and think I'll just head home and give me and the FJC some rest.

Sorry we're missing you this weekend but it sounds like you've got your share of wheeling in lately. We are up at the lodge cooking breakfast now and getting ready to hit the trails at about 9.

Thank you guys for having me with you on some of those trails! It was super awesome! It was a pleasure meeting you guys and hopefully we can do it again. And I also hope to see some pics and videos soon

But just so you know i did get back to Cortez with 5 minutes to spare so the timing weas perfect! Had a blast on Imogene Pass too, it was my first time on all the trails we went on so I had a really enjoyable time.

Thanks again and hope the reast off your day went well!

Only three ROCKS?! That was supposed to be three WEEKS. Oops...

 

[DAGORED]

Looks like another great BCC trail run! That was way cool of Ryan's family friends to let the club use their place for a base, wish I could have attended this run but like ACE just to many rocks over the past couple of rocks Hopefully that offer will be extended to us again next year.

I was a little late joining the party but it was nice to meet those that I hadn't already met.
Here are a few pics from my run around
leaving Talyor Park CB, CO after a long bike ride and
finding camp at 2am near Silverton

That tree was in perfect position for a late sleep. I did miss the group though... The lodge and drive up Cinnamon Pass, both stunning! Nap at the top of the pass was a plus. It was a 7 hour bike ride the day before after all...

Are you the builder of that new pop-up style RTT? Talked with you at Cruise Moab and OEX. In fact you camped stealthly next to me at the Slickrock CG. Nice photos.

Hey everyone! Sorry for taking so long to post. I have not even unpacked my truck yet and its been 2 weeks! I just wanted to say a huge thanks to those who made it up for this incredible weekend, even if you only met up with us for a few minutes or the whole time. Thank you Ryan for setting us up in the Eureka Lodge. We are now looking at making it THE base camp for future annual Ouray runs and will get next years date dialed in this winter. It is a truly special place filled with history of the area. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a getaway to consider it. Next year I would propose that we make it a true 3 day weekend.

Unfortunatly, I lost all of my photos from the first half of the first day!!! I'm going to check my laptop tonight to see if they got transfered there, I'm not sure how it happened but when I opened the folder on my desktop the photos start at Poughkeepsie Gulch. Oh well, stuff happens, and here are a few of what I did get.

Short timelapse. I lost 2-3 "scenes" worth of photos but still thought it worth sharing.
