free microspikes near Green Mtn (Boulder)

Post by rdp32 »

I was hiking from Green Mtn to Bear Peak today, and took a little diversion just East of the "Green Bear Trail" right after it leaves the Green Mountain West Ridge Trail (see map below). I basically just headed up and over the small hill right on the East side of the trail until I was out of sight from the trails, and sat down on a small log to, um, take a breather. Anyway, later in my hike I noticed that my Kahtoola microspikes (size large) were no longer strapped to my pack, and I'm pretty sure it was from that break. I didn't have the time or energy to go back for them, and I don't particularly feel like driving all the way up to Boulder to retrieve them (I'm rarely up that way), but I would also like them to be put to good use (they have a lot of life left on them)... so they're free for whoever finds them first!

Cool, I'll be running that trail tomorrow and will keep an eye out for them. Happy to ship them back to you (if I find them) if you pay shipping.

Eric---that would be sweet (thanks for offering!), but I also would simply be happy for them to find a new home, so if you need them, feel free to keep them as well. Just let me know

All---I forgot to mention that they are size large (I just edited the post to reflect that).

This is like Fenn's treasure all over again!

I looked on Saturday but didn't find them. The treasure could still be out there!
