Just a reminder about a little, informal hiker
get together some of us are doing in 1.5 wks in
Boulder, CO. If interested, please contact me. Looks
to be 8-10 people so far definitely going.

The post from last month:

Here is the plan: We are going to have the informal
gathering at my house in lovely Boulder, CO. Most
people who showed an interest are local (e.g. in
Denver/Boulder), I've had a Christmas party at
my house with 30+ people comfortably, for those who
want, you can bring sleeping bag/pad and stay at the
Boulder Hiker Hostel (well, at least
for this weekend! :) ) Based on the people who said
they were going, I don't think it will even be this
high. I also have a good sized back patio and
backyard, too.

Next Year: There has been enough interest and I've
learned a few things. The Leadville hostel has been
suggested several times and I think for next year
(2006) it will be a go. Part of our informal get
together will be to brainstorm any ideas
and put into place something for next year. I thank
everyone from the various hiking lists who contributed
ideas and good wishes. Thankyou!


OK..now on to the details:

WHAT: Rockies Ruck - an informal gathering of long
distance hikers, dreamers and those interested in the
long hiking trails
WHEN: Saturday March 26th and Sunday March 27th
WHERE: Boulder, CO at my house (Casa Mags Hiker
Hostel. :D)
DETAILS: Start afternoon Saturday.
-As mentioned, I'll be showing my Colorado Trail and
PCT slideshow
-But other than that, a wide open format. Really it is
just an excuse to meet and talk to other hikers in the
region. Have an idea? Let me know
-Sunday, after breakfast, a hike will be done if there
is interest POTLUCK DINNER AND BREAKFAST: We'll do a
potluck dinner and breakfast.
We'll work it out amongst those who RSVP.
INTERESTED IN GOING: Please RVSP me for more details.

HOW YOU CAN HELP: I have a laptop and screen lined up
for presentations. Anyone who can let us use a
digitial projector?
WANT TO GET TOGETHER FRIDAY?: Decided to leave this
day open. If there is interest, we can get together
somewhere local and informally Friday night for that
favorite hiker beverage: beer! Saturday is about as
official of a day as we are going to get, at least for
this one.
