This will be rescheduled for another week! Mostly just very tired and had a long week. It seems like this was that kind of a week for a couple others as well. Keep an eye on the camping post though.

Come join us to check out Champion Mill outside of Leadville. It should be a fairly easy day with pretty views and some Colorado mining history!

Significant others, family, friends and friendly dogs welcome.

For those who have significant others who don't drive or are on the fence about driving on trail, no worries! Chauffeurs are allowed

Meet up: 8:30 am
Trail time: 9:00 am
Lunch: at the mill
Meet up will be posted soon

If one wants to research mining around this spot this should take you roughly to Champion Mill, which is the purple hexagon if you zoom in at the end of county road 11. It's also the headwaters of Halfmoon Creek if you're trying to find it on a map.

I’ll be there in my new rig! I toasted the front suspension in the 4Runner and decided given it’s my daily driver it was time for something a little more affordable.

I also now understand what everyone meant when they said I was doing it “on hard mode” with the manual lol.
