    Default Slaughterhouse Gulch - Sunday May 26



    I'm going to be camping nearby after the show at Red Rocks on Saturday, so I want to go hit Slaughterhouse gulch on the Sunday. As per Ryan Boudreau and Mile-Hi Jeep club, the trail is now open and not subject to mud season closure this year.

    "The trail is virtually impassable due to the extremely deep hole..."

    Sounds fun.

    I called the Platte Ranger District two days in a row Wednesday it was " no one in the office runs the trails but we haven't heard anything about it being impassible . Call back tomorrow" Thursday and I quote "I don't know what the person saw writing that article , but all I can tell you is that people are going down there all the time" I will be calling again two or three days prior to the run>

    Thanks Leland. Unless the trail is closed, I will be there. The only thing holding me back from confirmed is Im having minor surgery 4 days before and not sure of recovery.
