The San Juan trip is fast approaching, so its time to start planning.
Meeting place: Shell station on CO HWY 115 in Penrose, 9:00 AM (or meet down there if you are traveling on your own).
Camping: Golden Horn dispersed camping area. Turn off is 2 miles north of Silverton on FSR 585. Its down a couple miles on the left. Camping area does have a bathroom (bring TP though). I like to camp in the far right corner down along the river. Its free! Campers and RVs can camp down there.
Trails: up for debate! There are lots of them there, and we don't all have to do the same trails. I'd like to do Cunningham Gulch up Stony Pass to Bear Town, I've never done that one and could be interesting. The Alpine Loop (Engineer and Cinnamon Pass) is a favorite. Ophir/Black Bear Pass and Imogene is another. Sydney and Governor Basin's would be possibilities. If there is a trail you'd like to run, post up!
Really this will be a come down and participate in as many days as you want. If you have questions, post up here and I'll do my best to answer them.
