I need to confirm with my better half, but I think my 11 yro will join me and we will probably camp that night. Maybe we could tag on Grizzly Lake the next morning for anyone interested. I think it's a moderate trail with just one wall obstacle.

What's grizzly lake like?

A great wall climb followed with a boulder field for two miles to a lake.

How's it compare to Chinaman. Honorary 35s compatible?

A gatekeeper basically. Then yeah, just a boulder field. The views are cool though

A stockish build with lockers could get over the small shelf at the start. Then it's a bumpy ride to the lake.

Two years ago @tworley pulled me up since I didn't have lockers or a winch. Just a LSD in the rear. Almost climbed it. But decided to quit before I snapped something

Oh sweet then I would probably be fine. I might tag along for that too that could be fun. Looks like that's where I went camping with my dad for July 4th lol.

Unfortunately I threw away my tent spring cleaning so I'll think about how to deal with that

When you make it out we will need to make it bigger than Chinaman. You need to hit holy Cross, 21 road, Blanca, and maybe the San Juans

I'd love to come out for an extended trip to hit the harder stuff.

Was up on Mt Evans/Blue Sky today. Leaves are starting to pop! Caught a few snow flakes up at the top gate. If anyone can get up in next week or so it's worth it
