Next year, I'm doing it really early for planning! :)
Anyway, I initially booked a place for the Rockies Ruck and date. More details to follow (via a website) by Monday night.
It will be similar to the ALDHA-West gathering in that it will be held at at YMCA and meals are included.
The dates are Friday (afternoon) March 25th through Sunday March 27th (morning), I realized it was Easter Sunday after I booked it. But I've been to this YMCA before and they do have worship service on Sunday for those who chose so.
The cost is also simialr to the ALDHA-West Gathering in the price, about ~$75. More expensive than say ADZPCTKOP or ALDHA-East, but meals are included and lodging.
Each person pays their own way. I booked enough space for 40 people and you have unti Feb 25th to book. If you book after that date, you can get a room if available still. Suspect within two weeks of March 25th you can still get a room, after that all bets are probably off.
This was fairly last minute planning and idea that started on White Blaze about two weeks ago, but likes like it will work out. It is near Rocky Mountain National Park, less than two hours from Denver, etc. Will have a ride board up as well.
I looked into the hostel at Grand Lake, but it is closed this time of the year.
Again, more details by Monday Feb 7th at night on a websight. Consider this a "heads up" for now.
About time we had something in the Rockies. :D
