Mock all you want, But I would consider getting off in GJ to Montrose to Gunnison and over Monarch. The reduction in traffic would be worth the extra miles to me. I drove it yesterday, roads were good all the way to Monarch.

I was going to take Vali to Butler Gulch for his first backcountry experience. I knew I left late, but didn’t want to skin in the dark.
I hit 70/470 at 6:30. Saw nothing but brake lights up the hill. Thought I would give 6 a try. Mile back up at the light to turn left. Nothing but brake lights up the canyon.
Ok, let’s try to at least get to top of Floyd Hill using back roads. Eh, nope. Another backup cluster.
Last thought, I’ll go up to Mt Evans gate and just skin up the road. And whadda ya know, hoards heading that way in hopes of skipping over to Idaho Springs.
After an hour of driving nowhere I ended up going for hike at lookout mt

Shit, I hit Idaho springs at 6:30am and thought I was late. Only ended up with a 15 minute delay getting to Vail, though.

Micol, you're always welcome to stop by and rest your head.

I won't even hear you, or you me, you bitching about my smoking and drinking, and me about your snoring.

Well, you know the place.

I'm not stuck on 70/40, but what's the strategy behind allowing one stoplight in Empire to cause 40 to back up to the summit of BP? Is it just stupid small town BS? Or is CDOT on board with this to keep the backup upstream of the 70/40 merge?

[Viva]

So, this is a normal Sunday afternoon, I take it? Love the folks driving the right shoulder!

Looks like it’s backed up almost to WP today, based on Google Maps. And 6 is backed up past A-Basin, and 70 is backed up everywhere. Jesus.

I’ll be heading back to Denver from Steamboat next Sunday. Do I:

A) Ski half a day then drive back via 40/9/70

B) Ski half a day then drive back via 40/70

C) Ski half a day and head back over Cameron Pass

D) Fuck the extra skiing and get the fuck in front of traffic

I bet if you left tomorrow you could beat traffic.

It took me one hour to get to Mary Jane this morning, smooth sailing. It took me a solid hour just to get from the top of Berthoud Pass through Empire coming back, then smooth sailing after that. Ridiculous, indeed.

All because of that stupid light? Come on Empire!!

Done this many times. We ski till the bell (well, boat whistle in this case), then head out of town at 4:30. 3:30 is early for us.
