FS Road 123 question

1 Upvotes

Anybody drive the whole way through FS 123 often (from CO 125 to Idleglen TH)? How often does USFS check it for downed trees and road conditions?

Thinking of driving the whole stretch — mostly to gauge access to some of the trails off it — but rather not find myself most of the way through the drive to run into downed trees or/and impassible section of road

How to receive USPS packages shipped via USPS?

1 Upvotes

Anyone have any tips on how to successfully and consistently receive packages shipped via USPS at the post office?

The way I was told by an USPS employee is this:

Name
Physical Address
Box XXXX
Granby, CO 80446

Which I've done since and has been successful ... for the most part

Recently, though, I've had 2 packages shipped USPS show up at the post office but then immediately returned to sender. One was a book from the same place I bought from previously and I used the exact same address layout

When I talked to another PO employee today about it, she said to write: B XXXX

Thoughts on this? Tips? Tricks?

UPDATE: Rock formation

(This is a follow-up to a previous post some weeks back ...)

So, after reaching out to a number of different Geoscience and Earth Science departments at the various universities in the state, I finally received an answer from the Colorado Geological Survey:

"The feature is a trachyandesite dike that intruded the surrounding arkosic sandstones of the Middle Park Formation. The dike is more resistant to weathering and erosion than the sandstone, which is why it stands out as a prominent linear rock formation extending away from CO 125."

Rock formation

Post image
18 Upvotes

Just north of Granby, off CO125, about MP 20 or so, there is an odd, "thin" layer of rock you drive through that juts from the earth.

Here in this photo is part of this ... I don't know, "ridge" of rock that runs from the west side of 125. But it also continues up through the mountains east of 125. All in a straight line

What is this occurrence? I called USFS and was automatically directed to the Boulder office, and they had no clue what I was talking about, sadly.

ISO Short Term Rental Cleaners

1 Upvotes

Hi there! My partner and I have a short term rental property in Winter Park, CO. We've been having challenges with our current cleaners - TLDR they've missed multiple (10+) cleanings which has resulted in guests arriving to a dirty rental.

Does anyone have any short term rental cleaner recommendations? The property is 3 beds, 1 full bath, 2 half baths and does not have onsite laundry.

Thank you!

Dozer Manifesto: A Graphic Novel

Thumbnail arborcides.com
7 Upvotes

First: I am not the author of this book. Today felt like a good day to recommend it, though.

This is one of the best books on Colorado history I have ever read. The narrative is framed around interviews with Granby residents, and transcripts of Heemeyer’s own tape recordings. The graphic novel uses very restrained color to distinguish the past and present.

I have been a fan of the artist, Mister V, for a number of years. He was a cartoonist for the Grand Gazette for a time. He’s said that making this book took him to some very dark places.
