Prepare for the upcoming Thanksgiving feast with a heart pounding hike. The plan is to climb to the saddle between the 1st and 2nd Flatirons starting at the Chatauqua Ranger Station. The hike is 3-4 miles round trip, with 1400 feet of elevation. It's pretty steep but there is a well maintained trail all the way. We will come back down the same way.

Dogs are welcome. They must be on leash or have the "green" tag if off leash. Children, out of town visitors, etc. are more than welcome. We should be back to the ranger station between 11AM and Noon.

The Chataqua ranger station is about 1 mile west and uphill from the corner of Broadway and Baseline in Boulder. You can park in the lot if there is space, or along the left side of Baseline.

For more info, email Glenn or phone [masked](h) or [masked](c).

Who attended?

    •  Delicious... 
    •  Wonderful time and wonderful people! 
    •  Great Day, Great Hike, Great Friends...it was one of those perfect days and everything just came together. Some of us did make the Summit and overcame a very icy trail; next time I will bring Micro-Spikes from REI. Our celebration for not breaking any bones was cocktails at the Julian Hotel...what a perfect ending to a fun day. Thanks Glenn for being our excellent guide. 
    •  From Diane from Orlando, thanks to everyone, especially the ladies who I ended up with! What a nice group of folks, I look forward to the next hike. Kisses to Bell. The wrist is just fine :)
