    Pencil us in. We have friends in the Springs that we can stay with on Saturday night so time is fine with us. I'm not sure where cedar mt road is? And as mentioned before, I do need to run Mt. Rosa as well, easy little trail, helluva scenic overlook from a little spur trail, will take less than an hour to run in and out if you'd like to start there? If not, I'll either try and get it ran before we meet up or after saran wrap.

    Cedar mt. road is a dirt trac from south of Deckers it exits just west of Manitou springs on the othrr side of the freeway from where you exit on the west end of the road you come in on from the springs.

    Might be interested in joining you for that.

    By "just west" you mean "significantly west" of Manitou Springs. Cedar Mountain Road comes out at Divide which is like 20 miles west of Manitou Springs.

    We have friends down there and stay with them once in a while. We were planning on going there Saturday night, but I dont think there is any reason we couldn't go one night earlier. What else are you thinking of running?

    you guys realize saran wrap is on gold camp road right ?
    and you can get there from divide but you have to take hwy 67 to 64 to gold camp and that is roughly a 1.5 hour trip

    Doubled checked and we're good for Friday night at our friends, so we would be interested in doing a Sat trail for sure! Any particular ones you have in mind? We are planning on running Mt. Rosa sometime this weekend while there as we have to finish a write up on it, but are open to anything up to a 4-5 rating for Sat.

    I'll probably still go up in that area Sunday, just because I'm free all day. If anyone wants to join me, just send me a PM or text me at 719-357-5846 and we'll coordinate a place and time to meet.
