Colorado BS thread

Do it.
you can keep it at my place :)

I need one too. I'm the guy getting towed. Which honestly was a riot and I didn't have to maintenance shit after!
 
Referrals

Our house should be done in a few months and I'm starting to compile a list of to-do's and am hoping you guys might have some referrals for local people/companies you recommend. Here's what I'm looking for so far:

Painters
Window Well Covers
Pest Control
Landscaping (Fence, expand existing irrigation, sod, rock, trees/shrubs, etc)
Radon Mitigation
Residential Glass (shower)
Carpenter for built-ins
Alarm Monitoring (have SafeSystems and am not impressed)

Well so much for my recommendations, sorry.

If you decide to do any of the work yourself let me know.

I work for 4Runner modifications :p
 
Welcome to home ownership

I was up there Monday at my friends house putting a sink and vanity in their laundry room. He is off Meadows Parkway

Yeah, we just put a ton of work into our old place about a year ago and sold it. I'm all too familiar, but at least this time I'll get to enjoy the results.

We were originally looking at the Meadows area but it's too busy for our taste. We ended up a couple of exits south, in the Plum Creek area.
 
Skied the San Joaquin couloir in Telluride last Sunday.
This was one for the books.

I have started to use my garage as a walk in fridge for all of my beers and cokes and energy drinks.

It hasn't gone above 40 degrees in my garage (the cars and 4Runner live outside) and the past few days it's just above freezing.

Don't know what I'll do come summertime.
 
^ you may have to switch your beverage of choice to Modelo. Its the only beer I've found that still tastes good warm.
 
Hey bofa! I'm surprised you haven't mentioned this headline;

Castle Rock to allow open carry of guns

CASTLE ROCK, Colo.—It will soon be legal to openly carry a firearm in public buildings and parks in Castle Rock after the Town Council repealed a ban over the objections of a majority of the police department and town staffers.

"My point-of-view is to restore the constitutional rights to the people of Castle Rock," said Mayor Paul Donahue, who supported the new policy.

You know, I saw that it was going to a vote but didn't check the results. I'm not a big open carry person but it's good to know I'm living in a gun-friendly area. :cowboy:

nice lookin trip dude! Just googled NY Mtn. Did you guys hit the hut or just day trip it?
Hope the turns were good. I'm offshore right now but I think it's snowing yes?

Ya we stayed at the hut for 3 days, it was pretty sunbaked but definitely nice to be back there. Highly recommended for you and 7 of your closest friends. Pretty cheap too. Think the yurt itself for the weekend was around $50 each. It sits on 35 acres of gladed terrain about 1/4 mile from treeline, about 11,400ft.

Its been dumping since yesterday afternoon, and they're reporting 6-10". Some estimates put the totals up to 25" before the weekend, that sounds a tad optimistic but we will see.

I took the photo below on the last day. After 2 weeks of sunshine, the crystals were about 1.5 inches long. really cool fields of surface hoar, but ridiculously dangerously deadly now with the new snow on top. I took a screenshot of the Avy report, but if any of you guys are headed out this weekend, be super careful even in-bounds(several people this season have been caught in human triggered slides within resort boundaries), and don't even think about heading for the BC gates. We already lost 6 people in avalanches this year, and one hit way too close to home. Be safe and make good decisions!
