"I-25 is closed from Pueblo, just South of here, to the state border. Not a real good day to be out and about."

There's the Shelf Road up to Cripple Creek and Stagecoach Road from Gold Camp Road. ...very scenic and fun this time of year!

Shelf Road is tough anytime. Wish I was on it right now-NOT

Wouldn't be fun today, though. Eeesh ... just had a nasty flashback to the day I got stuck on Rampart Range Road on a bright, sunny December day ... but the wind started blowing hard, and the road got blocked by a couple feet of snow in 30 minutes. We were lucky to get out of there.

That was the day I learned the true meaning of "Mountain Conditions Can Change Rapidly." I'm a lot more careful these days.
