How hard did you have to try to get lost in Custer State Park??? [:D]
Not a real easy thang to do, is it?


They're much simpler on Gorn, and there's park rangers and stuff. You know, north, south, east and west are simply imaginary concepts on Gorn.

Things are much simpler on Gorn. Left turns are not allowed under any circumstances. Also, Asians must signal left if they wish to turn right. Only Mexicans are allowed to turn right from the left lane. I know this is difficult for an uncivilized species such as yourselves to grasp. There are soft-serve cones available to those of you whose attention span has reached zero.

Found a piece of nose art that riled me up and I embarrassed the Admiral's wife with this shot!

Is that an Aardvark? (F-111/FB-111/forget what the designation was for the Spark Vark)

Scale on a -29 is hard to imagine but look at the SIZE of this prop!

I wonder how big the one is on a Bear (Russian aircraft).

There is one loop in Custer State Park, with 4 access points. Only a complete...oh, wait. Never mind[:'(]

That's me in the 6th picture down.

John;

Have you ever done the Silverton and Durango trip?


Hey Cap!

We wanted to do Durango this summer but ran out of $$$ and time. Will do it next year.

We did the Cumbres and Toltec two summers ago and that ride was AMAZING! Highly recommend it.



"Cumbres and Toltec". It sounds fun just from the name. Colorado has some great place names. Telluride, Ouray, Leadville, Durango, Beaver Creek...etc

Durango has some cool old timey hotels "downtown"


I'm from Telluride. Town ain't what it used to be [:(]

If you like historic hotels, there are a few in South Park (Como & Frazier) that are still using the same plumbing & beds [X(] In Como there is still a standing roundhouse, and if you know where to look you can see the local cat house [:D]

No offense, but even though Telluride looks cool it has some of the snootiest business owners. Maybe that is what you mean. Haven't been there in perhaps 20 years. Bitchen 4WD road over to Ouray

No offense taken. Oprah had an airport built on the ridge, developers moved in, town went to hell. There is a '74 orange Bronco just to the south of that trail to Ouray. It's mine [;)] Gonna take a sky crane to get it outta there, if they ever make one that can fly that high [:D]

So that's why. It's a loop. It was like groundhog day, we kept ending up in the same spot! [8|] And yes, I'm the most complete gorn there ever was. [;)]




Lecivius -> RE: OT: Black Hills and Ellis (9/16/2015 6:16:04 PM)

For those who don't know, Telluride is in a box canyon. There was a single cable ore car that ran from town to the top of the canyon a few hundred feet up. Miners would ride the ore car to & from the mines in the 1800's, and the ride was called To Hell u Ride (hence the name). I found a panoramic pic my son took just last month. Bear in mind this is panoramic, so it is a full 180 squeezed into a JPEG. Let's see if I can get it to DL right.
