Re: Exercise during the pandemic
Folks, please stick to pre-approved obesogenic activities, like driving large gas-powered cars everywhere and ordering junk food from drive thru's.
You don't even need to get out of your car to shop, because if there isn't a drive-thru, there's always an underpaid driver available to speed around delivering whatever worthless crap you need.
We can't afford the extra health care burden right now! Please stick only to the costly lifestyle choices and risk factors that are part of the regular health care burden. Thanks!

Outdoor exercise is considered an essential activity. That said, please don't all show up at the same place, let's disperse the best we can. If you see that parking is full or a trail looks crowded, move on to another place. Go earlier or later in the day.

Re: Exercise during the pandemic
Don't misinterpret my post. I am in no way advocating that folks travel outside their local vicinity, that is irresponsible right now. I was just stating that you are allowed to drive to your local trailhead for a hike. Maybe I could have worded it better.climbingcue wrote: ↑Wed Mar 25, 2020 2:03 pmPeople not staying out of the small mountain towns, video shows it all.HikerGuy wrote: ↑Wed Mar 25, 2020 11:52 am Per the City of Boulder shelter in place order, you are still allowed to drive somewhere to exercise.

Q: You know you're parked in an avalanche path, right?
A: Yeah it's all good.
That's the spirit!
