Spooky Night Run 2023 - Slaughterhouse Gulch

[FJCDan]

Got day off and will be there in my pick up so will have to do the battery lights. I will bring my propane fire pit.

 

[C.Gerdo]

I’m traveling home that day and I also need to get my steering box back in but I would like to come.

 

[C.Gerdo]

And (a request from my wife) are any wives (or other women) coming?

 

[Yarn Cruiser]

At least two women folk confirmed. 😉
She should come. This is a fun run to come to. Plus candy.

 

[timmbuck2]

Robin will be with me

Took my donor 4.30 front diff to a guy in Highlands Ranch today because he had a specialty tool for removing the needle bearing and installing an ECGS bushing. Mentioned the run to him and he might be coming along in his 3rd gen and might also have another buddy with another 3rd gen come along. I sent him a link to this thread and told him to join the forum.

Robin will be with me

Looking forward to meeting her!

Seeing if anyone is leaning towards a potluck?
I am looking at dishes to share but we can also bring some stuff for hamburgers. We have a lot of patties and condiments currently.
We will also bring our fire pit with our grill grate. People are free to grill with it and after dinner we can toss a few more logs on it as well.

I was thinking about doing some sort of crock pot pasta type thing to share and was going to bring sticks and stuff for s’mores. We are also bringing our large propane fire pit

I'm in... Thanks to Alex for organizing and for the loan of a floor jack to get my new RSG sliders installed in time!

 

[On the RX]

I may be making this run solo!

 

[MountainGoat]

We are in for this one. JoLene and I for sure. The kids perhaps.

I'm seeing on Saturday a high temp of 47F and low of 17F with 50% chance of Snow. Not great weather to be hanging out in after sunset. I'm not sure going to another trail will be better conditions with this storm rolling through.

---

I'll put it to a vote: Push through the snow or Punt to the following weekend? (Kind of a Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) to keep with the "theme" of the season...)

I tagged those who have commented they are coming. If you're not tagged and thought about coming, may want to read up...

Something else that we can do is change the start time. Maybe around 10am-noon. Catch a lot of sun and home before dinner.

 

[rushthezeppelin]

Drat I've so been looking forward to this run ><. I'm going to delay my vote for a bit to see if the forecast suddenly improves (it's Colorado afterall).

 

[DaveInDenver]

What's a little weather? Forget the year. Besides snow (not fresh tho) the fog over Floyd was so thick everyone was going 20 MPH.

 

[C.Gerdo]

I’m out. I don’t have my steering box back from the shop and I won’t be back in town in time.

 

[MacPhail]

I am all in for this Saturday in whatever conditions Colorado can dish out-- the hairier the merrier. I'd have to pass if it jumps to the 4th, but you all have a blast if that's the preferred option!

 

[Doughboy]

I'm in for whatever conditions Saturday

 

[NotyourmomsWife]

We are in for whatever weather comes our way! I ain’t scared! Like @MacPhail said the hairier the merrier! (Love that and totally stealing it btw)
