Just an FYI, at the rate things are going around here right now, "Fireman Hill" might have a whole new meaning by the time you get here.

Yeah, I hear ya. We were evacuated form Estes Park Saturday, drove through the Boulder smoke trail on the way home tonight and my sister's place in the Springs is in danger of being over run. I will be checking things out later this week to see what is open/safe.

Either way we will run something and your welcome to join

Yea co-worker got some great video from his place up at Estes of the helicopter flying over his place and dipping down by the lake to fill up.

Last weekend was the first week in 4 months that I didn't get out to 4 wheel. Smoke is starting to get to me.
