The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Holy Moses that's a huge and awesome report. Looks awesome. One thing I've noticed about you is that there's always an abundance of good meat. I still remember that London Broil from a few yrs back.

Great one!

Trees, Huts, and Ullr's, apparently we like the same things about Winterpark. I also love the downstairs bar Pepperoni's at Mary Jane. Although one of the locals was kind of pissed when I showed him that I'd found that smoke shack. I told him the odds of me finding it again weren't great, which unfortunately is true

Really sorry we missed each other, usually I have a lot more freedom of movement on CO trips
