Local Mopar heads in and around Denver..............

fyi, coming up...
Details - Sunday, 22-September:

1. Meet at 10 am at the King Soopers parking lot, 17171 S Golden Rd, Golden 80401. Park near the Sonic. (this is the grocery store at the southeast end of the Golden Super Cruise route)
2. We'll go through Golden, catch Hwy 58 and head up US 6.
3. We'll head past Black Hawk, and take CO 119 until the town of Nederland, where it follows State Highway 72 north.
4. Near Raymond, the route continues north along State Highway 7 until it reaches Estes Park. We'll be parking in one of two spaces near Raymond - just past mile marker 51 or just past mile marker 52 immediately after a right turn at the Raymond sign (Riverside Rd.)
5. Public restrooms and gas stations are available at Nederland.
6. Again - as picnic areas are hard to find, please bring your folding chairs and possibly a folding table, in addition to your sack lunch.

After lunch options:

• There are some cute shops in Meeker just up the road
• St. Catherine's Chapel on the Rock is just up the road for photos
• Estes Park is 20 minutes farther on Hwy 7
• Returning home options:
  • Hwy 119 towards Boulder - Boulder Canyon Drive - returns folks to Boulder and the northwestern metro area
  • Hwy 72 east through Pinecliffe and Wondervu, drops you at Rocky Flats just above Arvada/Broomfield. There are some one-lane sections but there are stop lights to control traffic.
  • Retrace drive back through Black Hawk
