If the weather looks bad, I may change this hike to Wednesday, March 8th.

We will have a "comfort stop" at the Loaf 'N Jug in Bailey.  I will keep an eye on the weather and snow depth and let you know closer to the hike if we need MICROspikes and/or snowshoes.  Also, if there is time on the way back, we may stop at the Snowpack Tap Room & Pizzeria in Conifer.

This hike is for Rocky Mountain Over the Hill Gang Members ONLY
