Where?
I'm hoping to ride Saturday and Sunday. Not sure where yet.
Bill, we'll be riding for sure.
Thinking my back yard, summit, or corona.
Not sure if they've started plowing rollins pass for logging, if so, that could really suck if we hit that. Vail Pass also looks pretty solid, at least it did on sunday, not sure about a week later, melting faster now.
I'd avoid riding with that colorado matt guy... he'll just hold you back. ;D

Kaleb, make the plan and I will hopefully be there. You know, to hold everyone back
Adam wants to ride also, but that's all I know of.

Well... given a choice between where we rode sat & where we rode sun... which would you want to hit again?
I'm up for any of them, haven't been to corona in a while, I'd like to hit that but not sure about the road.
Our deadline for film is next week, so we'd like to build a booter, but I'm ok with just F'in around too.

I heard Montezuma was rotten? I'm happy to ride anywhere from Jones to Rabbit Ears or wherever in between. Completely up for building a Booter also.
bummer bout zuma... guessing it'll be pretty similar anywhere we go though.
I'll ask around about corona, maybe we can make that work.

Can't imagine SC would be worth it. long ride, low trailhead... and WHOOPS that would be about the size of my jetta right about now!!!
I'd bet the trailhead is melted though. Maybe not?

Buff still has 12' at the stick, 75" of precip on the year and 73" of that still locked up in snow! opparently

and that's a helluva lot a water for these parts! All that snow/water melting off in a couple of months! A once in 500 year flood event is forecast. The Yampa basin was over 280% of average this year.

We're at well over 300% over here. Poudre, boulder & Clear Creek are gonna be crazy this year.
Running safety for "creek at the peak" race near my place tomorrow... and we're NOWHERE near peak yet. We're very lucky it's been moderate temps this year from a property (flooding) and from a life safety (rafting & otherwise) perspective.
Rafter fatality yesterday on the Arkansas headwaters....careful out there.

sh*tty.
We're at 5 for the season now. That sucks.
I really hope our race goes off safely. A little different with a bunch of people who do this all the time than with the joeys who don't really know what to expect when they get out of the boat though.
