Ouray is this year! We've made it to 2020. Time to start thinking of possible 'themes' for the gathering.
My theme is "wish I could be there" Gonna miss seeing everyone and spending some time in the San Juan's this year!
You make me sad.
Who's going to help with the eggs benedict? Who's gonna hang with us at Maggies kitchen? I am gonna miss you guys not being there this year. Hopefully we can hook up next year or ???

Are there trails for stock wagoneers? i want to road trip mine there from Houston, and visit other places in Colorado too.
Yes... and no. Ten years ago almost all of the trails seems more stock friendly. But in the last few years a lot of the trails have gotten more difficult.
That being said, yes, there are some trails you should be okay on. Folks will guide you depending on the current conditions. And often times you can ride along with other folks too.
You know, that's a good question. Normally we set the date during the current year's invasion. Let's see how it goes. I notice the KOA has not cancelled my reservation yet. Of course I am hopeful that the restaurants will be open for business. I think of "Maggie's kitchen", that poor guy is operating on a slim margin and really only busy during the summer season. During peak times there is always a line and it would be difficult to 'social distance' on the patio.
If there is a place to stay I will show up. If the local businesses are 'take out' only I will do my best to support them. Maybe Casey and I can pick up a few 'growlers' at the Ouray Brewery.
Are most of you folks still planning on showing up? With this virus thing maybe we can work that into the 'theme'.
I’ll make my decision to cancel or go in four weeks.
I’m not optimistic.

Got it, that makes it by Father’s Day weekend.
My decision will be made off of what is happening with the virus, that’s why I’m not optimistic.
With my health concerns (I have been tested negative and will get tested again next week) I’m not putting myself out there for any reason.
I’m also very doubtful the KOA can provide for basic hygienic sanitation, I’ve seen these bathrooms and such since 2003, it’s sub-par at best, and the fact they tried to scam the system leaves me with no trust for the new owners at all.

That totally makes sense Tad. They claim they are doing sanitations several times a day but it's not worth the risk. I have a cabin again so one good wipe down and since there is no room service I should be good to go. Also, I am not in a high risk. I am just young enough, no chronic conditions and my regular Camelback hikes means my lungs work pretty good too.
I am going anyway, unless something other than COVID-19 happens. Missed last year 'cause the throw out bearing in my car decided to rapidly disassemble itself.
