In case you want to keep up-to-the-minute on weather (and traffic)
conditions in downtown Durango or Pagosa Springs (and others), the

Also, http://www.collegiatepeaks.com/ provides a 15 minute updated

Hardrock 100 Endurance Run
[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
I've just finished the 2004 MTN RNR Trail Series schedule. This year
we have 27 trail runs, from roughly (say it ain't so) marathon class
to about 50 miles in length. They're located from the El Paso, Texas
area across New Mexico, to central and southwest Colorado.
The goal of the MTN RNR Trail Series is to provide an informal
opportunity to enjoy running in the often remote outdoors, perhaps on
trails that you're not familiar with.
The format of these unorganized runs is minimalist. There is no fee,
no pre-registration, no prizes, no t-shirt, buckle or goodie bag.
Just show up, fill out the S&R form, get the trail briefing (&
associated lies) and, map, then run. You keep your own times and run
with others or by yourself as you wish. Neither aid nor trail
markings is promised.
If you're interested and didn't receive a schedule, let me know and
I'll email you a copy.
I hope to see you out on the trails.

Looks like the roster for some day out program conducted by a
community based mental health organization.
I'm in good company and look forward to seeing all of you in June.
Steve Pattillo
S. Pattillo wrote, "Looks like the roster for some day out program
conducted by a community based mental health organization."
Steve has half-wittingly hit on one of the key features of the
selection process. The salient selection criterium used by the Run
Committee was, and I quote directly from the minutes,
"Selection SHALL be inversely proportional to mental stability."
The combination day dog day care and marmot herding activities will
be based from my house in Silverton.

Greetings from snowy Los Alamos,
Below is the snow accumulation for Silverton up through the end of
January. Silverton received about 30 inches of snow during the first
week of the year but not much after that. Los Alamos got about a
foot of snow last night but I don't think there was much snow in the
San Juans from this storm. The San Juan Mountains currently have
about 94% of normal snowfall for this time of year.

Hello All,
The last few days of February saw a lot of snow in Silverton and the
San Juans. The San Juan snowpack is very close to normal. With a
little bit of luck and without a heat wave, we may be able to
glissade Virginius. I hope to see you there.

Hi Hardrockers....
Deb and I are planning on driving out this year and we're bringing our dog,
Tucker. We will need either a kennel or a dog sitter for the days we are
running the race. If anyone knows of any possibilities, could you email me
offline? The best place for the kennel would be in the Ouray
direction...that way we could pick him up on our way home after the awards
breakfast.
Thanks and see you all in July,
Steve Pero

I am thinking of putting on an unofficial no fee, no aid 50K run to 3 of
Colorado's most remote 14ers, Eolus, Sunlight, and Windom. The date will be
about a week before Hardrock, but the exact start date and time will be by
mutual agreement once we have weather forecasts. The start/finish will be
at the Purgatory campground 20 miles south of Silverton on US550.
Officially this is not a race, which would be illegal in wilderness areas.
It will instead be a group attempt on the speed record, currently 22:03. I
think that with excellent fitness and preparation it could be done in 12-14
hours, although my goal will be about 18 hours. I put together a route
description and trip report at http://www.mattmahoney.net/sunlight/ The
true distance is probably closer to 36 miles with 10,000 ft. of climb, but
since I didn't measure it, I'm calling it 50K just to be safe.
Some of the climbing will be hard. If you have any fear of heights, this
run is not for you. If you're interested, let me know, and I will put
together a mailing list.

Hi Hardrockers!
The San Juans received another blanket of white this week but I think we
are in good shape for this years event, as far as the snow level goes.
As I was thinking about the summer, songs began to circulate in my head
and I came up with an idea. Here goes. . . . if you have a special or unique
song that reminds you of some aspect of the HRH please e-mail it to me. In the
populist tradition of HRH, I will compile those songs and produce a HRH
musical CD which will be composed of the 12-15 most popular (most requested
songs). Feel free to send along 3-5 of your favorites but please don't send me
your entire MP3 file!!
Hope everybody is well!

Dale,
I'm thinking that there is nothing more fitting than that old favorite by
the Almond Brothers "Whipping Post." It is not a great sing along song.

Greetings from the San Juans!
Here is the latest updates for the 2004 Hardrock.
1. Our course director, John Cappis, has made a few course
modifications, which we believe will help in getting runners off jeep roads.
These were suggestions made by runners and we are happy to see what we can do.
We are now waiting for final Bureau of Land Management approval. Assuming we
get the BLM's approval, we will send out the course maps and runners manuals
(if runners requested a paper copy) sometime around the later part of this
month. Meanwhile, Blake Wood, our website guru, has posted the downloadable
version of the 2004 runners manual to our web site. Thanks Blake. You can also
view the updated entrants list as of today.
2. Andi Kron, who is in charge of the Joel Zucker Scholarship committee,
will be conducting interviews for the JZ scholarships this upcoming weekend.
Thanks Andi for continuing the tradition of what we feel Joel would have
thought was a great idea.
3. Please remember the new e-mail addrerss for the Hardrock is
hardrock100@.... The e-mail addrerss ddmb@... is now a dead
link.
We hope you all oare enjoying the spring!

Hello All,
Below is the Silverton snow report as of May first. April was fairly
wet in the San Juans with about 30 inches of snow at Silverton. From
various San Juan Mountain SNOTEL sites, the snow water content is
very close to normal for this time of year.
I was in Silverton over the May 8-9 weekend and there was a lot of
snow in the north facing tree slopes and above treeline. Many
avalanches had recently run on the higher slopes. There was even
snow in town, especially on the north sides of houses, from the heavy
snowfall on about April 30th. The Coal Bank Hill (10,600+') snow
gauge showed 1.5 feet of snow and water was running off the hills all
around. The Mineral Creek crossing was not particularly high but, it
was very COLD. However, the Uncompaghre River was dirty and really
roiling.
I'm looking forward to July.
