Any of the Fan Club Brothers in that area? |

That is about a 5 1/2 - 6 hour drive from Littleton through the mountains. Whatcha gonna be doing there? Ski season will be over. |

Location: Powder Springs, Ga. | There's no skiing in the summer and that's what they're best known for. Very beautiful though. Make sure you check of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison. Awesome. |

Location: boulder | Well,
After living in colorado for 14 years, I still have not made it to Crusty Butt. It is in the middle of Colorado mountains. One way in and one way out (unless you have serious 4-wheel drive). Pretty country, not much else around the nearer one gets to there.
Which month are you coming, I will be in Connecticut for most of summer. mike |

From what I have found it is remote to say the least!
Can't get too close by Plane or Train. |

Location: Tulsa, Oklahoma | I just got back... One of my business partners has a place up there... I usually go up in August or Sept. and play golf and goof off... It's a sleepy town so if you're looking for a party you better bring your own.. Fishing's great tho!... |
