Sweet, is the plan to meet y'all campers at the campsites or are y'all coming down in the morning?

Awesome!

Do bring some decent shoes, gloves, clothing for typical Colorado weather. I'll have a few trash bags to pass around so don't worry about that. Also make sure your rig is in decent order, normal recovery stuff if you have it, etc. Plan on lots of stopping, at least at first.


And Jim for camping I reckon any time after 4 or 5 folks should start showing up, I'm going to do my best to get up there by then.
Ok, so no tools needed?
This is my truck, incase there are several groups there, you can flag me down so I know who you are.

I'll keep an eye out. Do you have a radio? If so, just chime in and let us know you are in the area. We will be the groups slowing everyone down!

Argentine Pass is about 8.5 miles. McClellan Mountain is 13ish if the top is open. Questionable due to lingering snowdrifts. Plan on wheeling about 20-30 miles give or take.

So y'all are camping between spots 1-3 on the map above roughly, on Leavenworth Creek Rd? I'm heading out shortly. Hoping it's cool to bring my 8lb terrier along.
if you’re headed up already, you may be the first to arrive. I’m hanging out with some colleagues in Idaho springs but we’re wrapping up, so I should be there before 5 or so.

Knees are hurting today, took a big fall yesterday while downtown.

Still planning to be at the meet up spot tomorrow. Planning to ride along so I can take pics..

Great to see so much excitement for this run.

We’re camped up at 39°40.823' N, 105°42.793' W. Instead of taking the switchback for Leavenworth keep straight on FR 248.1B, and then left through the water crossing. Road is called Paines Mountain Spur Rd according to Google. As you start on the road, hit the first fork right and follow it down to where we’re parked up. See you guys soon!

north side
(39.6807828, -105.7129735) is our campsite. All the lower stuff is full, so we are up Leavenworth creek then first left across the water, then up the hill then right. Google map those coordinates
