1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited.

Ok so it looks like i may be losing my hiking buddy... im not ready to give up and some times my husband wants to come and some times he does not. i will NEVER hike alone unless im gonna do a 14er since those trails are packed with people and clear trails. But i do love to get out and do all the close 13ers as well and those are much less traveled and well i need someone else with me. im talking about SUMMITING a mountain, elevation gain and anywhere from 5-15 miles RT sometimes, also very early start times, like 5am. if you think you and your dogs are up for it let me know and i will keep you posted on what im thinking and when. this weekend im still waiting to hear if my husband is in or not, there is also about a 40% chance of rain early at every peak i looked at so im still up in the air about it. on one side i want to hike on the other side i don't want to be struck by lighten and be stupid as both peaks are exposed! so that's that.... let me know Smile

I would love to, unfortunately right now Xena is to young to really take on the big hikes. She is only 4 months but as she gets older I will definitely be looking to take her out.

Trust me, I'm trying! But the school is doing everything possible not to make that happen. I've had two classes for this fall cancelled right out from under me already, one of them being required for my concentration! After that, I'll only have one more semester to get everything in to graduate on time. I am so livid right now. In my 6 years of undergrad and grad school at this university, I have never had a class cancelled on me like this!

I told you, I'll hike with you only if you bike with me 50+ miles the next day. I have an extra bike you can borrow... Razz

Erica if you can do elevation with the knee you could do a few hikes with me, Claudia if i biked with you i would miss Kat's sunday morning class and that would make me sad, im sure 50 miles on a bike is not that bad.....

thinking we may get rained out this weekend, will know more with tomorrows weather report. might have to shoot for next sat. Freya i will let you know!

With the weather we have coming in this late afternoon/night, it was probably a good call to hold off on your hike lol.

Hey, I could go but I might need a ride. I share my gf's car and she would probably need it. I'de pitch for gas if it wasn't too big of an inconvenience. I'm right by 1st Bank Center in Broomfield.

if i was heading that direction i would pick you up but i am shooting right up I 70 and i live near DIA so not really close.
we are now looking at http://www.14ers.com/routemain.php?route=demo1&peak=Mt.+Democrat since the miles are shorter so better chance of getting off the mountain before weather, stupid report is still at 50% chance of storms, im pissed!

No worries! It is also annoying hopping on I-70 from my location too, especially if you take Wadsworth and its million stoplights haha! I noticed that this summer is bringing in way more storms than last years scorching dry summer lol.

Polar and I are still hiking, even though we haven't been to this site for awhile. Although I'm working a full time job and a part time job now, so I usually only have one free day every week.

We're doing Elbert next weekend if you and Polar are interested in joining us. Not sure how your work schedule is, but the plan is to camp Saturday night, get an early start Sunday morning, and be back in Denver on Sunday evening.

"Next weekend" as in Labor Day weekend, or the weekend after that? Funny thing is I've already made plan to hike Elbert on 9/6. Going to take my wife and Polar on our only camping trip this year, I've already reserved a site at Difficult campground. If you're going on the same 9/7-9/8 weekend, I can modify my plan and do Elbert on the Sunday instead of the Friday.

What hike on Elbert are you going to do? I know there are a few different routes. I really wanted to get Elbert in this year but I'm not sure I want to try and take Xena on a 14 yet. Don't want to push her too far too soon.

I'm not sure what Jenn has planned. You're welcome to join us without Xena, Aaron and I won't have our dogs with us either.
