Mountain Mondays: Our walk up Smelter last Monday presented such
a great scene of the city of Durango! We might see it sometime at night.
This week’s hike will be up Coal Creek and onto Jura Knob. It is a
moderate to difficult hike, especially on one section of Jura Knob where
you may need a push. Bring lunch, warm clothes, good hiking boots and
gaiters (in case of snow). Meet at Father’s house 8:15am, Monday.
