7:30a Brainard Gateway Winter Lot

There is a fee now; however you can use displayed park passes.  We will organize car pools from NBldr for those coming from that direction.

Forecast is for a good dump next week, but as much of the trail is in trees and may be tracked-out by Sunday, expect mixed conditions.  This is still early season and I plan to bring snowshoes in the event we need to alter route/plans, for example, hike up Niwot instead.  I will scout this out a bit late Saturday, volunteers welcome to join me.
