We will meet at 9:00am in the Cabelas parking lot at Ridgegate and I-25 in Lone Tree, specifically in the northwest section of the parking lot close to Cabela's, for a prompt 9:15am departure. Here is a Google Maps link to Cabelas: https://goo.gl/maps/wWCXBUwvW7D5SDSg6. DO NOT PARK in the parking lot close to the Sierra Restaurant or the hotel! The Parking lot (Parking Lot #2) at Hidden Mesa is small. We should make effort to carpool.
We will have beautiful views of the front range from Pikes Peak too beyond Longs Peak. Great opportunity to see both western and mountain bluebirds.
