A follow up from the Calcite Mine trip: The park service in it's infinite wisdom has gone through and graded the entirety of the road. Now an off the shelf cross over SUV's can get up there without issue. It was never a big challenge but was a lot of fun to go up there with a few fun obstacles and exposure. I'm not sure the reasoning of the park service anymore. They want to limit exposure and human impact to remote places and yet they grade the roads so anyone can go in.

 Here is wishing all a Happy Easter and hope it is well spent with your loved ones.

GOD THAT LOOKS LIKE FUN!!!!  I still need to find a group in my next of the woods.  I miss running trail with you guys.

Hey Home Slice! Great to see you getting out with some folks running trails. Looks absolutely beautiful there. It looks like we will most likely be rolling through your part of the world August/Sept time frame so hopefully we can at least get together for a lunch. It's good to see you happy and doing well!

Yeah, it's nice to have a group to get out with, even if it is a few hours away.  Let me know when you're up here and we'll definitely figure something out.
