About the Event
Join us for my favorite Northern Colorado drive - up Buckhorn Canyon to Mishawaka, then down to Fort Collins via Horsetooth Reservoir. Subject to some slight changes, but basically:
Drive is ~75 miles from Johnson’s Corner, up Buckhorn Canyon to Mishawaka, down Poudre Canyon to Horsetooth Reservoir, then back to I-25 at Timnath, CO. About 3-4 hours including lunch. Here's a detailed map with directions.
Take I-25 N to exit 254 (CO-52). If your interested, JC is known for their (overrated) cinnamon rolls and breakfasts. Be sure to use restrooms here, it will be about 1 hour before the next facilities. We’ll meet at 9:00 AM, leave at 9:30 AM.
From I-25 we'll follow CO-402 south of Loveland then up to US-34 and on to Masonville on CR 27. We’ll stop briefly to gather up, but there are no facilities in Masonville.
Now for the good stuff, Buckhorn Canyon!…
