Meet in the parking lot, north of the bathrooms.  

Pack weight is 45 pounds (Lbs), water weight is not included.  I will have a scale if you wish to check or do not know if you have enough weight. This is the only option available.  The other NON option involves carrying a rifle.  That will not work here, it is a residential neighborhood and you will make many soccer moms upset.

It requires 3 people to certify a Ruck, so please come if you are not even qualifying and just want to get some exercise.  You will be valuable for others with you presence as a witness.

There are bathrooms at the facility.

Look up weather (Centennial, CO) the day before, Dress for weather

Families, kids, wives, spouses, strollers and leashed dogs are welcome.  The path surface is rough, icy and snowy in many areas.  Please plan foot wear accordingly.

Out 1.5 miles and back, then out 1.5 miles the opposite direction and back, kids can ride bikes if they wish.

Want!!  I'm hoping this cold in my head clears up and I can make it.  I need to prove to a buddy I didn't steal the backpack he loaned me

And that whole third hike thing.

How did it go?

Only two; so we went a little over 3mi and called it.  Targeting Mar 19 and 26 for next events.

Keep at it…the Utah chapter is comprised of myself, my 15 year old son and @satdvr.



Weather around these parts of the US usually makes for some challenges between November and April, of course then it gets ‘too hot’ shortly after.

Yep, had four this past Sunday, and looks like another good one this weekend. Props to COBullseye for all the organization!
