s

Directions (update): Although it's up the hill, it's really very close; only 6 mi from the Red Rocks exit, less than 10 min, as quick or quicker to get to than Green Mtn, Falcon, etc. Take I-70 to the Chief Hosa exit, #253. Go south, left (if coming from Denver) across the highway. Go left on the dirt frontage road a short distance to the "Y". Go left at the "Y" and immediately park, along the right side of the road, as close to the "Y" as possible. Meet at the "Y" to start the run..
