RMOTHG MEMBERS ONLY - Rabbit Mountain is a lovely little Boulder County Open Space just east of Lyons.  We will have views of Longs Peak to the west and a cool overlook of the Little Thompson.  We'll hike the Eagle Wind Loop (which is an open Ponderosa Pine forest) and then hike up to the Little Thompson Overlook.  I expect the trails to have some mud.  Let's also bring our spikes, just in case.  

Don't hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have, my email address is listed in my profile if you don't already have it!!!

Colorado Mountain Club Parking Lot (north side), 710 10th Street, Golden - 7:30AM

If you are coming from the north or Boulder area, I will add another carpool location.
