Another excellent Red Rocks Classic! Sorry to Okteenerfest that this event is the same as that one - I'd love to be at both. Looking forward to Star Trek-esque transporters to achieve that next year!
Hotel: Our hotel room block is reserved under Porsche 914 group. Best Western Antlers, 171 W 6th St, Glenwood Springs, CO 81601 Call (970) 945-8535 for reservations. If you want a fridge/microwave, request it when you reserve your room. Single queen $130 Single king $140 Double queen $150 Beautiful location, walking distance to a lot of stuff including Glenwood Hot Springs Pool. Make your reservation by Aug 14. These are special rates that expire after Aug 14. Schedule: The schedule is do what you want this year. We'll have dinner reservations but the rest is free form. Here are some suggestions. Thursday: Arrive - walk to dinner from the hotel around 7pm - pick burgers at Grind (701 Grand) or tacos at Slope and Hatch (208 7th) which are right next to each other. Both have non-meat options. If you'd rather not walk anywhere, Tequilas is across from the hotel, or there's a beer garden close with a Mexican food truck. There is a vintage car race at Aspen/Snowmass around 30 minutes down hwy 82 during the day for anyone in town. Friday: Hotel parking lot dinner around 7:30pm. Suggested activities: Early drive to Hanging Lake - hike to the lake or there's a great bike/walking trail along the Colo River that goes by the Hanging Lake lot. Rent/bring a bike and ride down the Colo River trail. Have some fun at the Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park - a lift takes you up the mountain to explore caves, take the alpine slide and other fun stuff. Ron is leading a drive Friday morning from Glenwood to McClure Pass beside the Crystal River and pass by Carbondale, Redstone and Marble on the way up. From the end of the drive, you’re on your own to continue on, hike, fish, or head on down to plenty of restaurants options in the towns mentioned. Ron is thinking he'll do a hike in Marble Friday. Saturday: Walk to dinner at Glenwood Canyon Brewing, 402 7th St, Glenwood Springs, CO 81601, from the hotel around 6:45pm (0.6mi), dinner reservation is at 7pm. Suggested activities - Drive down 82 through Snowmass, Twin Lakes, then up hwy 24 through Leadville and Minturn then back to Glenwood via I-70. Or drive to Marble (82 to 133). Or, attend Porsche Day at Woody Creek in Snowmass in the a.m., and the car show at Snowmass Village in the afternoon. Or, take the Snowmass Village gondola up the mountain and hike down (or gondola down) in the a.m., and the car show at Snowmass Village in the afternoon. Ron is leading a drive Saturday morning from Glenwood to Ruedi Reservoir Basalt and follow along the famous Frying Pan River and back for the Snowmass Car Show. Sunday: Try to find someone to have breakfast with if you want. And miss us already! All day every day: Shenanigans!
