standard poodle, or Ray in a red pick-up, driven by himself.
This is an easy paced run. It will continue every week as long

Directions: Meet at the NREL visitors' lot. Take I-70 to Denver
West Blvd. Go north to the first street. Turn left. Go 2 blocks
to the NREL lot.
From 6th ave, exit at Indiana. Go north to Colfax. Turn right
and continue past the shopping center on the left. Turn left at
Denver West Marriott Blvd. Go over I-70 and follow the
directions above. There are no bathrooms or changing facilities
at this site.
Route: You'll probably stay together. Leigh knows the way. Just
in case...
Head up the single track from the lot. About 100 yards up, make
a left at the fork. Follow the trail to the top, then continue
to the north side of the plateau, staying outside of the paved
CDOT test track. At the north end, go left, west, on the old
jeep road. REMEMBER THIS TURN FOR THE WAY BACK! You've gone <
1-mile so far.
Follow the jeep trail to the west. At no time should you cross
the paved CDOT test track. If you get there by mistake, head
north until
you find the trail. You will pass by an E-W fence line, cross a
N-S fence line, then look for a small abandoned building on the
right. A short distance later, the trail splits. Go either way
around the small hill. The trails merge on the other side,
~1/4mi. Continue west until it meets a larger jeep road. Bear
right and head west towards the power lines. In the dark, look
for the large "M" on Lookout Mtn. REMEMBER THIS TURN FOR THE WAY
BACK! Depending on time, continue past the power lines, down the
hill to the far western edge of the plateau, then up the "Golden
Stairs," a rock perch overlooking the town of Golden. Return the
same way.
