Meeting Time: 8:30-9:00 am - Leave at 9:30

Meeting Place: Cemetery area half mile above (west) of Central City. Go due west out of Central City up the hill about a one mile. At the top of the hill
west of Central City at the multi fork in the road. Continue on the middle road west 1/2 mile and look for the new Yankee Hill trailhead on the right. Vehicles with trailers can park there.
39°48'43.9"N 105°32'26.1"W (39.812190, -105.540586)

After the run we will meet at Beau Jo's for pizza in Idaho Springs around 4-5 pm.

CB Channel 4 - Ham 146460
Will will air down and/or chain up (if your using chains) at the meeting place. Most elect to not use chains.

Difficulty - this run is open to everyone. The only requirement is to have hard points front and rear for strapping purposes and of course a strap ready to go. A shovel and additional recovery gear is highly recommended.

Be prepared to stay warm and dry with winter clothing and boots. It can be really cold and windy up there.

The new preferred staging area for 4x4 travel is 1/2 mile up the road on the right. It is created specifically for use like ours. Its where we aired up last winter:

39°48'43.9"N 105°32'26.1"W (39.812190, -105.540586)

The former area, which we used for years, and now surrounded by wood fences and unlocked gates, remains of undertemined ownership, and is likely public lands. To reduce user conflicts, the new area was created.

Will will air down and/or chain up (if your using chains) at the meeting place. Most elect to not use chains.

Difficulty - this run is open to everyone. You just may not get as far as some. The only requirement is to have hard points front and rear for strapping purposes and of course a strap ready to go. A shovel and additional recovery gear is recommended.

Be prepared to stay warm and dry with winter clothing and boots. It can be really cold and windy up there.


Oh Boy! Can't wait!

Daniel is correct that 1/2 mile up the road on the right should be our new meeting place. I'll update the main post.
