That’s the same hole Sam had to recover someone from on Saturday.

Thanks for posting my "difficult water recovery" image. To clarify, isn't this the heaviest vehicle extracted and the most difficult extraction to date in this year's Christmas tree cutting event? Vic

I'll be there Saturday and probably Sunday, too.

Weather forecast shows a chance of snow on Friday....perfect!

 

[Goslow]

I'll come whichever day we need more people.

So plan to meet at the Woodland Park Alta at 8AM?

 

[LC4LIFE]

Both days--NOT MEETING at the Alta c-store in Crystola.
Instead, we'll meet in DIVIDE at the Stop N Save: address is 10 Meadow Park Drive, Divide CO.

Meet between 8am and 830am. Group departs at 830am. Drive west on 24 to intersection with CR-5, turns north on CR-5 (Manchester Creek) for 5 miles +/- to the Rule Ridge Trailhead parking area (meet USFS there).

Claire and I will be there Saturday. Claire has to leave at noon. I will stay all day.
I may be there Sunday too. Unsure on that yet.
In 12 years of her attending this event, this is the first year she gets to drive her own rig. She’s pretty stoked.

No go on Saturday for me, but I will be there for half of Sunday.

Looks like snow moving into Teller County for Saturday into Sunday. Looking like 5+ up there, in addition to the minor accumulations from last night/today. That should make things a bit more interesting. Maybe light snow early, picking up in the afternoon and evening. Should be clearing out by Sunday morning. Have fun, stay safe and keep warm!

Long time no see! I hope to make it as well on Saturday.

 

[Stokes]

I'll be there tomorrow

Welcome back, Jason!

My Saturday work plans fell through. Perfect excuse to go to the forest.

Another fun day on the mountain, we had 10 rigs including four Jeep friends! It was pretty slow traffic-wise, but there were still people out there getting a Christmas tree!

Here's some montage photos of the Sunday crew!
