ATV Ride Tuesday 10/27/15

We will have an ATV club ride, Tuesday, as it is a non-hunting day.  Meet at the Visitor’s Center and plan to leave at 9:00 am.  If it is raining at that time, the ride will be canceled.  Hope to see you there.

Monday’s Hike

Hikers.

This week there is a break in the hunting season, so Wayne has decided to lead a hike to middle Frisco creek.

Meet at the Visitor center at 9 AM on Monday (10/26)

No hike on Monday

Hunters are active this week so there will be NO hike on Monday (10/19).

Tuesday Pot Luck & ATV Ride

The club is hosting the Community Pot Luck, Tuesday, Oct. 13^th.  We plan to set up tables, etc at 5:00 pm at the Community Building.  Pot Luck will be at 6;30 PM.  Hope you can join us.

The club will not have scheduled ATV rides this week, since it is a Hunting week.

Monday and Wednesday

The Moulds have informed me of the death of Linda's 100 year old mother. They are headed for Kansas.
That leaves us leaderless unless Dennis shows up. I am trying to meet several deadlines before heading out toward Brasil.

We realize as well that big hunting season is opening, so it may be a good time to leave the woods to the
hunters for a while.

Many of you can lead the way up a trail. If you wish to do so, I'll be at the Visitor Center at 9 a.m. to get you started.

ATV Ride Friday, 10-9-2015

The club ATV ride for Friday will be Shorty Springs up the Center Stock Drive and loop around.   This will be a work ride.  Leave the Visitor’s Center at 9:00 am.

It was one of those special days!

A day worth living. Light worth recording. A time worth hiking in our National Park at the Dunes.  Sorry we failed to attract more of you.  I think I'll be preparing for a trip to the Brazilian ocean next Wednesday. (We depart on Thursday.) So, I'll be back in mid November, hoping for snow and its big shoes.  Thanks for joining me this spring, summer and fall.

Sand, water, mountains of rocks, colorful vegetation. Serenity, ripples, mountains. Changing light; easy walking.

ATV pics for 10-2-15

(10-2-15) Eleven of us set up poles at Alder Creek for the upcoming snowmobile season. 

Lunch with hamburgers and all the trimmings was wonderful.
